I found a similar problem using FreeTDS - we were just as stumped until we 
tried using IP rather than a DNS name.  Seemed to solve it in our situation.  
We could telnet to the DNS name port 1433 fine, but had to use the IP for 
FreeTDS I believe.  It was a while ago, and we were changing a number of 
things around, so I can't be 100% sure that was what solved it - but I think 
it might have been

Hope that was of some help.
