My ./;tsql -C command gave me the following result:

Compile-time settings (established with the "configure" script)
                            Version: freetds v0.82
             freetds.conf directory: /usr/local/freetds/etc
     MS db-lib source compatibility: no
        Sybase binary compatibility: no
                      Thread safety: yes
                      iconv library: yes
                        TDS version: 5.0
                              iODBC: no
                           unixodbc: no


Looking at my freetds.conf, I have the following entry

[MyServer2k]
;       host = ntmachine.domain.com
        host = 10.10.192.6
        port = 1433
        tds version = 8.0

If I run TDSVER=7.0 ./tsql -H <ip_addr> -p 1433 -U <username> I don´t get any 
error message, just a "1>" prompt:

locale is "en_US.UTF-8"
locale charset is "UTF-8"
Password:
1>

If I change the tds version parameter to 7.0 on the freetds.conf and run 
tsql, I get the same error as before:
 
./tsql -S <ip_name> -U <user_name>

Msg 20009, Level 9, State -1, Server OpenClient, Line -1
Unable to connect: Adaptive Server is unavailable or does not exist
There was a problem connecting to the server

Since I´m  not using the -H parameter, tsql should read the freetds.conf file 
which I already specified the tds version to 7.0

Do I have to refresh, rebuild or restart something to validate the changes 
made to the freetds.conf ?

One other question is regarding freetds version. I have the same system 
running with 0.64 version and I was thinking of installing this older version 
instead of 0.82.
Is there a repository where I can download older versions?

Thank You,

Fred Pohl

You're probably not using the right TDS version.  When you use "tsql -H",
you're bypassing freetds.conf.  The TDS version used depends on the
built-in options (which you can check with "tsql -C").  

Since you're using --with-mssql, I suppose you're connecting to a
Microsoft server, so you want:

        $ TDSVER=7.0 ./tsql -H ip_addr -p 1433 -U user

or, better, 

        $ ./tsql -S servername -U username

TDSDUMP and TDSDUMPCONFIG should tell you anything else you need to know.
