I am running stable version 0.62.4 on Debian (woody).  I have the
unixODBC and unixODBC-dev packages installed.  I am attempting to
connect to SQLserver 8.0

>From the {prefix}/bin directory I run tsql as 
./tsql -H db -p 445 -U sa

Here is the output

locale is "C"
locale charset is "ANSI_X3.4-1968"
Password:

And it hangs here forever after typing the correct password.....finally
will timeout and yield

Msg 20004, Level 9, State 0, Server OpenClient, Line 0
Read from SQL server failed.
Msg 20014, Level 9, State 0, Server OpenClient, Line 0
Login incorrect.
There was a problem connecting to the server

The login user/pass pair is correct as I have verified it several times
using the Microsoft SQL client tools, DBAMgr2K, or WinSQL.  If I use one
of these three apps to connect to the db server, netstat on my Windows
box shows that I have established a connection to remote port 445.  nmap
results of the remote host also shows port 445 as open.

Forcing tsql to port 1433 yields the following.....

locale is "C"
locale charset is "ANSI_X3.4-1968"
Password:
src/tds/login.c: tds_connect: xx.xx.x.xx:1443: Connection refused
Msg 20009, Level 9, State 0, Server OpenClient, Line 0
Server is unavailable or does not exist.
There was a problem connecting to the server

Telnet xx.xx.x.x 445

When I built freetds, I only provided the --prefix option

Thanks for your suggestions,
