        (I suggest you update your snapshot.)

Looks like a login failure:

  ad    login ack
  14 00 length
  00    ack (not success)
  04 02 00 00 TDS version
  0a    namelen
  4f 70 65 6e 53 65 72 76 65 72 "OpenServer" 
  0c 05 01 00 server version (12.5.1.0?)

Normal servers return a login error message.  Perhaps yours doesn't, or
perhaps it doesn't accept TDS 4.2 connections.  You might try 5.0 instead.
 Otherwise from all appearances the account you're using is not allowed to
log in to that server.  

HTH.
