With which driver unixODBC works well??
Have you tried with a different DB (MySQL, Postgres...) ??

I don't know if Nick it's right or not however I would enable unixODBC
log just to see if unixODBC it's not able to load FreeTDS library or
another error. I don't understand why you have to extract static
library... which driver did you use to test unixODBC ??
