The footnote on this page applies to you:
http://freetds.org/userguide/freetdsconf.htm#FTN.AEN801

"In general, the dataserver name is arbitrary and local; it's used  
only by your client programs to tell FreeTDS which server to connect  
to. You can choose any name you like.
Sybase SQL Anywhere (a/k/a Sybase ASA), however, is fussy. You must  
use the database's name as your dataserver name. Otherwise, the  
server will refuse your connection."

That is, replace [test] with [name of your database].

TDS 7.0 and 8.0 are only used for MSSQL.
