[myserver]
Description=...
Server=ntbox.foo.com:port
TDS_Version=7.0
Database=testdb
Trusted_Connection=yes/no

Typically the Port is seperate from the server....

Server = ntbox.foo.com
Port = 1234

This make it easier to understand when someone is editing the odbc.ini by hand and even by config tools. :)

BTW: Its not uncommon for the driver to lookup settings in the odbc.ini after the call by the DM to connect... for example to handle unusual settings.
