Kevin,

First, I can tell you that you are not alone.  I am having the same problem
on my system.  Lets compare notes.  The server I am connecting to is MS-SQL
6.5.  Don't know the service pack on SQL, but the NT4.0 service pack is SP4.
My client is Slackware Linux on Intel (586-200), Kernel 2.2.14.  

Did you set up the SYBASE environmental variable to point at the freetds
directory?  What platform and OS are you building FreeTDS on?

>From your FreeTDS source directory, try this:
$ cd src/tds/unittests
$ make
$ ./t0001

See what error this test produces.  I expect you will see something like
"tds failed! on
t0001.c".  Lets see where that gets you, maybe I can offer some more hints
from there.  Is your system set up for a little C debugging?

Sincerely,
John DeJournett

                Hello all,
                  I'm trying to get freetds to work on my linux web server
but I can't seem 
                to get freetds working. Maybe someone can help me.
                  Let me give you as much info as I can.
                  I have MS-SQL Server 7.0 with sp2 running on WinNT 4.0 (SP
6.) My client 
                is linux, SuSE 6.3 with Kernel 2.2.13. I downloaded and
installed freetds 
                v0.5. I did the ./configure --with-tdsver=7.0, setup the
LD_LIBRARY_PATH, 
                setup the PWD with this info:
                UID=sa
                PWD=sapassword
                SRV=7.0
                DB=mydbonsql
                Then setup the interface with this
                :
                mongo
                        query tcp ether <sqlip> 1433
                        master tcp ether <sqlip> 1433
                where <sqlip> is the ip address of my MS-SQL Server.

                Then I go to do the 'make test' and I get this:
                sh test.sh
                Starting tests for tds
                ----------------------
                Building...done
                Testing 1...failed
                Testing 2...failed
                0 tests passed.  2 tests failed.

                Starting tests for dblib
                ------------------------
                Building...done
                Testing 1...failed
                Testing 2...failed
                Testing 3...not run
                Testing 4...failed
                Testing 5...failed
                Testing 6...failed
                Testing 7...failed
                Testing 8...failed
                Testing 9...failed
                Testing 10...failed
                Testing 11...failed
                0 tests passed.  10 tests failed.

                Starting tests for ctlib
                ------------------------
                Building...done
                Testing 1...failed
                0 tests passed.  1 tests failed.

                Any ideas why this happened?
