in thread Difficulty Connecting to MS-SQL server in Linux

Michael,

I am running the latest stable version of FreeTDS (0.64) and submitted a question to their mailing list. I might be able to connect via ODBC, but I remain hopeful that the FreeTDS mailing list might have some insight.

Thank you,
Sean

    Got it! I had the host that the server resided on. I was able to update the connection string to the following:

    my $dbh=DBI->connect("DBI:Sybase:host=<hostname>;port=2832",$user,$password);

    Since the hostname didn't have a slash in it, I was able to use the port that the server was using. I was able to connect so that I can continue testing.

    I appreciated the comments!
