I've been successful using the following:

unixODBC 2.0.6
FreeTDS 0.61
Perl 5.8.0
DBI 1.32
DBD::ODBC 1.04
DBD::Sybase 0.95


It came down to reading the documentation very closely... and a bit of
sifting through archives. For example, in unixODBC's odbc.ini I missed any
reference to the distinction between ServerName (DNS) vs. Server (ipaddr).
But fortunately, someone else had recently asked the same question on the
FreeTDS list.

Speaking of which, the FreeTDS mailing list archives are _not_ searchable.
No matter what I type in the search box, it returns: No "matches were found
for ...".
