Cinar,

One of three things is true:

1. There is an error in the unixODBC or FreeTDS files.
2. unixODBC is not reading the INI you think it is.
3. FreeTDS is not reading the freetds.conf you think it is.

I suggest you use the TDSDUMPCONFIG environment variable to ask FreeTDS to
log its attempt to locate your server in its configuration files. I think
that log will answer your questions. If not, post it here.

FreeTDS won't attempt to connect to localhost unless explicitly requested.
(localhost is not a default fallback of any kind.) I suspect an ODBC
misconfiguration.

HTH.
