    Seems strange that this works

    tsql -S servername.xxxx.xxxx.net -U username -P password -D dbname
    

    but this doesn't

    tsql -S MYMSSQL -U username -P password -D dbname

    Try enable logging and using just server name in freetds.conf

    # Whether to write a TDSDUMP file for diagnostic purposes # (setting this to /tmp is insecure on a multi-user system) [global] dump file = /tmp/freetds.log debug flags = 0xffff [MYMSSQL] host = servername.xxxx.xxxx.net

    mysql is not the same thing as MS SQL Server.

      how would i see the version installed?

        Assuming you can connect in some other fashion SELECT @@version should work. Failing that you could ask your systems administrator. Your initial post mentions 'Azure Data Studio'. I'm sure Azure has some UI to show you what you're running.

      DESKTOP-J2QR254:etc raventheone$ sqlcmd -S Server -U user -P pw + Sqlcmd: Error: Microsoft ODBC Driver 17 for SQL Server : Can't open li +b 'ODBC Driver 17 for SQL Server' : file not found.

        If your Mac can't connect to the server you're trying to connect to (isn't this what you're trying to fix?) you're going to have to find another way external to this, as per my previous statement.
