Jim,

I just tried some quick tests with the current CVS head code on Linux and
alpha Tru64 clients against an MS SQLServer 7 system. Clients built
for/using tds4.2.

Both compile without problems now although t0004 still fails on both.

Using sqsh for testing, opening a connection from Linux works immediately,
but from Tru64 it sets there for about 1 minute before I get a prompt. Once
the connection is made, response is immediate. (All systems are on the local
subnet).

Testing selects against my usual (trivial) tables looks ok from both.

However I tried running your "all_types" killer query (sent Sat 22/06/2002
5:26 AM), and although most of the tests look ok, there seems to be a
problem with the _text entry. It looks like its gone into the table ok, as I
get the right value when I look at it with MS Query Analyser or Enterprise
Manager, but the result from both of the freetds systems looks like garbage.
I'm assuming its a convert problem ?

David

TDS7 logins fail with the current snapshot. The attached patch corrects
that. It is just "diff -u" after applying Bill Thompson's advice (7 August,
Bug in login.c).

With this patch, I think the gross errors are now fixed; the current
snapshot should work will all servers and all clients. I would appreciate
feedback from anyone using it, especially about problems with data
conversion.

I plan extensive dblib testing this weekend. If successful, I'll put
together another pre-release.
