This is my odbcinst.ini file.
[TDS]
Description             = Sybase
Driver                     = /usr/local/libtdsodbc.so
Setup                      = /usr/local/libtdsodbc.so
FileUsage                 = 1

And I am using FreeTDS 0.62.3.
OS verion : Gentoo Linux 2005.0
kernel          2.6

This is the output of nm:
gentoo root # nm /usr/lib/libtdsodbc.so |grep ODBC
nm: /usr/lib/libtdsodbc.so: no symbols

I guess this is the problem, right? But I switched the ODBC on, when 
installed the FreeTDS.....
Please confirm it's a problem, I will look into it.

Thank you.

[FreeTDS]
Description = FreeTDS
Driver = /home/freddy/cpp/freetds/freetds/src/odbc/.libs/libtdsodbc.so
Setup = /home/freddy/cpp/freetds/freetds/src/odbc/.libs/libtdsodbc.so
FileUsage = 1
Trace = Yes
TraceFile = /tmp/sql.log

ODBCConfig works as expected.

$ nm /home/freddy/cpp/freetds/freetds/src/odbc/.libs/libtdsodbc.so |
grep ODBC
0000d114 T ODBCINSTGetProperties

(this is the entry for ODBCConfig using unixODBC)

Are you using 0.63, don't you?
