Hi I have a problem with connecting MSSQL Server using FreeTDS
I am using Ubuntu 12.04 LTS
I have installed unixODBC in the path /usr/local/unixODBC and freeTDS in /usr/local/freeTDS and got all the files like odbc.ini, odbcinst.ini and freetds.conf in the path /etc
i am trying to connect with DNS less connection following the instructions from the link

www.freetds.org/userguide/dsnless.htm

I am getting the error [unixODBC][FreeTDS][SQL Server] Unable to connect to data source (SQL-08001)

Driver config file odbcinst.ini
[FreeTDS]
Driver=/usr/local/freetds/lib/libtdsodbc.so
Setup=/usr/local/freetds/lib/libtdsodbc.so
Threading=0
FileUsage=1
DontDLClose=1

Perl Program
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use DBI;

$dsn = "dbi:ODBC:DRIVER={FreeTDS};Server=$server;database=$database;";
$dbh = DBI->connect("$dsn","$user","$password") or die "\n$DBI::errstr
+\n";
