Tried all that, but it didn't make a difference. However, meanwhile I did
find the solution. Once more I checked if I had the correct settings for my
datasource in freetds.conf and I noticed that I had a freetds.conf in
/usr/local/etc and one in /etc. I've copied one over the other and now it
seems to be working perfect.

Thanks for all the usefull help!

Removed these also, but also no difference

Does your database have the same name as your server?  This will display

Yes this returns MYDBNAME as default  database.

The IP-address of the server only needs to be specified in
