aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd should point to a valid section in yor freetdf.conf file.
Something like this:

[aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd]
        host = some_host.domain.com
        port = 1433
        tds version = 7.0
;       try domain login = yes
;       try server login = no
;       nt domain = MYDOMAIN

> We recently upgraded from PHP 4.3.3 to PHP 5.2.0.
>   After the upgrade the database connections have started failing with a
"mssql_connect() [function.mssql-connect]: Unable to connect to server"
error.
>    
>   The only way we can get it to work is by appending the port
information to the db servers IP address.

connect to database");

changed whereever a db call is being made. I on the other hand think we are
missing some config parameters.
