Hello All,
I am trying to get freetds up and running in PHP 5.3.2 on Apache 2.2.14.  I 
have downloaded the latest snapshot and ./configured it.  Using tsql I am 
able to connecto to my SQL Server instance using the -S option so it appears 
that freetds is recognizing the server configuration.  However, when I try to 
call mssql_connect in PHP with the alias for my server it fails (no error 
message, it just returns false).  When I specify the DNS name for the server 
then mssql_connect call works just fine.  I tried editing the freetds.conf 
file to turn on logging but no log file appears in the /tmp directory.  I 
also tried explicity setting the TDSDUMP and TDSDUMPCONFIG environment 
variables but the log files are not created when I call mssql_connect from my 
PHP page.  I also tried setting the FREETDS environment variable to point to 
my freetds.conf file without success.
Getting the PHP info from the webserver shows under a mssql heading:Active

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,--Ben
