I am trying to use FreeTDS to connect from an RS6000 running AIX 4.2.1.0
to a Windows 2000 SQL Server 2000 database. When trying to use tsql -H
***.***.***.*** -p 1433 -U sa -P ******* I get an immediate illegal
instruction (coredump).

The contents of the log are as follows:

util.c:288:Starting log file for FreeTDS 0.65.dev.20060216
on 2006-02-27 09:41:17 with debug flags 0x4fff.
iconv.c:195:names for ISO-8859-1: ISO8859-1
iconv.c:195:names for UTF-8: UTF-8
iconv.c:195:names for UCS-2LE: UCS-2LE
iconv.c:195:names for UCS-2BE: UCS-2BE
iconv.c:361:iconv to convert client-side data to the "ISO8859-1"
character set
iconv.c:514:tds_iconv_info_init: converting "ISO-8859-1"->"UCS-2LE"
iconv.c:514:tds_iconv_info_init: converting "ISO-8859-1"->"UCS-2LE"
net.c:168:Connecting to ***.***.***.* port 1433.

I have ping'ed, telnet'ed and confirmed the SQL Server is accessible. I
have tried both the stable (0.63), and latest version (0.65) of FreeTDS
and both give the same error. As does using TDS version 4.2 or 8.0.
When I configured, I had to specify --disabled-threadsafe and
--disable-shared to get the program to make. Other than that, I had no
problems.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Dave
