Hi 
We are currently using freeTDS (together with a python/sybase module) to 
connect Netcool on a number of platforms (Win XP, Centos 3 and 4, and 
Solaris) - you will certainly need to set the TDS version to 5.0 - but also 
take a look at the changes in the ftds-nco-0.63.patch that's available at

http://netcoolusers.org/Downloads

We're still using 0.63 - but the patch changes should be easily applicable to 
0.65

Regards
Huw

 (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.
