nobody answered yet, so here's my comment:

hi!
good work, haven't looked at it yet, but i'm quite sure it works.

i didn't find any changes on the iODBC-page:
http://www.freetds.org/userguide/x1760.htm

is there anything mentioned about DSNless connections?

hmm ...
think an ODBC-connect that doesn't reference a Server in the 
freetds.conf shouldn't use the global options from that file.

BTW: can i configure ODBC-DSNs that are freetds.conf'less?
(the definition of a freetds.conf'less DSN would be a DSN without a 
Servername option)

what do you mean? i don't understand you properly in that point.
especially the word "readded"

again i don't understand you that well.
sorry


Thx
