Hi,

I'm trying to get FreeTDS (in the form of sybdb linked to a C++ binary) 
working. I've got it connecting, executing queries, etc., but am having 
problems with timeouts. The network environment is somewhat lossy, 
leading to failed login attempts. However, although I've requested a 10 
second login timeout, and although the /tmp/freetds.log is spamming :

   13:49:34.603236 26839 (net.c:354):exceeded query timeout: 10

every 10 seconds during the failed login attempts, I'm not getting any 
calls through to the error handler. When I do connect successfully, and 
if any *other* error conditions happen post-login, then the error 
handler is called correctly to handle those error conditions.

Anyone seen this before, and is there a solution?

This is freetds-0.64, with a vanilla configure/make/install on CentOS 
4.6, linked against a C++ binary compiled with gcc 3.4.3. It's 
connecting to a remote MS SQL server.

The exact code in use to generate this is attached below.

Regards,

Vin

dberrhandle(err_handler);

DBPROCESS *dbproc=dbopen(login, (char *)linktarget.c_str());

dbloginfree(login);

dbsettime(30);

return(dbproc);
