You're absolutely right! But the debian packages doesn't install tsql by
default so I needed to install freetds also from source.

I had multiple freetds.conf files.

I've found the right one and I can now connect through tsql.

BUT I can't connect through isql.

SERVER:# isql -v TEST -w
[S1000][unixODBC][FreeTDS][SQL Server]Unable to connect to data source
[ISQL]ERROR: Could not SQLConnect

Thanks for all the help!
