This one seems to be a doozy. Yet, so basic. I try to connect from my ActivePerl using Win32::ODBC to the SQL Server 7 Box. Problem Number 1 is that I'm an American in Japan, so all the documentation is in Japanese, so I can't just play with the server to make it work. I receive: 
Couldn't open database: [1326] [] "[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver]
+クライアントの接続が確立できません。" stopped at E:\homepage0828\cgi-
+bin\DBCheck.cgi line 7.

This should translate to: 
[State =01000][Error=1326][Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver]
[SQL Server][dbnmpntw] ConnectionOpen (CreateFile()) 

Error 1326 means "Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password."

I've had the Japanese Sysadmin look at the database 3 times now and he says all the user permission are correct on SQL Svr. The ODBC is set up on WebSvr. It is listed as a System Resource. The Sysadmin says the error I get is incorrect. I have to wonder...

So, what am I missing? Anyone else have problems like this? Where do I go wave my magic wand and hang the dead chickens? ;)
