Hello,

I use FreeTDS ODBC driver version 0.64 on HP-UX and I conclude that setting of connection timeout(SQL_ATTR_CONNECTION_TIMEOUT) by SQLSetConnectionAttr method don't work. 

I set connection timeout on value 10 seconds and then interrupt network cabl to server on which is Sybase database. Then, I attempt to connect database and after about 76 seconds (!!!) I get message:  "[unixODBC][FreeTDS][SQL Server]Server is unavailable or does not exist".
 It is not OK, we should to get this message after 10 seconds!!!?!?

I run this test on windows (with FreeTDS ODBC driver version 0.63 and 0.64) and after 10 seconds I get message:  "[FreeTDS][SQL Server]Server is unavailable or does not exist". 
On windows it works fine!?
  
What is wrong with FreeTDS - HP-UX and connection timeout?
