Is there in fact a user named 'user' whose password is "password" (with
the quotes)? I would guess you want to substitute the real username and
password here. Try it with tsql and unixODBC's isql first.
[Generally we don't recommend putting that kind of information in your
.ini file, but I assume you have a reason.]
Also, I wouldn't use TDS version 4.2 unless that's all your server
supports.
HTH.
