I converted to using static IP's, and still have the problem. Here is the
exact output:

connect: No route to host
DB-Library: Login incorrect.
error: Cannot connect to mssql 7.0 database
second try
connect: No route to host
DB-Library: Login incorrect.
error: Cannot connect to mssql 7.0 database

the 'Cannot connect to mssql 7.0 database' is my error message.
second try is from the shell script, and connect + DB-Library are from the
libraries..
