    We have a MySQL database server running on a MAC.  I cannot get a 
connection using FreeTDS tsql.  We are
using FreeTDS version 0.63.dev.20040507 (also tried 0.62.4) on a Solaris 8 
server.  The error received is
"Unknown marker".  We can connect successfully using the mysql test program 
from mysql.com.  We have tried TDS
Version 7.0 and 8.0.  Can anyone explain what is happening and how to fix the 
problem?

            Thanks,

            Bill
