Hello,
  I don't have root access to my server, so I installed FreeTDS in my home 
directory. I tried it several times, because I didn't manage to install 
libtdsodbc.so. Finally I managed to do it, putting --with-iodbc=/usr/local/  .
Now tsql connects fine:

carlo@qs41% ./tsql -H ip.ip.ip.ip -p 1433 -U user -P psw
locale is "C"
locale charset is "US-ASCII"
1>quit
carlo@qs41%


However, sometimes the connection is refused.

Anyway, the point is that iodbc does not connect:

carlo@qs41% /usr/local/bin/iodbc-odbctest "DSN= SCAM; UID=user; P= psw"
iODBC Demonstration program
This program shows an interactive SQL processor
[FreeTDS][SQL Server]Unable to connect to data source, SQLSTATE=08001

Have a nice day.carlo@qs414%

So, it looks like the problem was in the .odbc.ini. Here it is:

[ODBC Data Sources]
SCAM= SQL Server 2000


[SCAM]
Driver          = /usr/home/carlo/freetds/lib/libtdsodbc.so

Could anybody point me to my error? Thank you in advance for any help.
