Hello Users group,

I use freetds with perl DBI in scripts to connect to an application called
IBM Tivoli Netcool/Omnibus (versions 7.3.1, 7.4, and 8.1) .    Freetds
version 0.91 works fine with all of them. I am installing new servers and
downloaded the latest freetds version  1.00.15 and now am unable to run
queries.  Error is the following when I  connect:

        "ERROR=Parse failure on line 1 of statement 'select @@spid ', at or
near '@'"

Connection (in freetds log) is successful, but the select statement above
causes failure).

Is this something that can be disabled?

./tsql -C
