FreeTDS is a free implementation of the TDS (Tabular Data Stream) protocol that is used by Sybase and Microsoft for their database products. It can communicate with any Sybase or Microsoft SQL Server. It includes three client libraries: DB-Library, CT-Library, and ODBC. All libraries use the same protocol and can communicate with servers from both vendors. Where do I get FreeTDS? You can get the latest FreeTDS from ftp.freetds.org. See "

Msg 20014, Level 9, State 0, Server OpenClient, Line 0 Login incorrect. There was a problem connecting to the server Since the error message reports "Login incorrect", my first step was to verify that I am indeed typing in the correct username and password. It is a SQL Server login (i.e. not Windows authentication) and I have ensured that it's correctly input with case sensitivity. Note that I am able to connect using the same login from a Windows client without any issues. My next step was to dump a log from FreeTDS: util.c:288:Starting log file for FreeTDS 0.64 on 2011-04-12 16:29:57 with debug flags 0x4fff. iconv.c:195:names for ISO-8859-1: ISO-8859-1 iconv.c:195:names for UTF-8: UTF-8 iconv.c:195:names for UCS-2LE: UCS-2LE iconv.c:195:names for UCS-2BE: UCS-2BE iconv.c:361:iconv to convert client-side data to the "US-ASCII" character set iconv.c:514:tds_iconv_info_init: converting "US-ASCII"->"UCS-2LE" net.c:168:Connecting to 10.5.5.226 port 1433. net.c:673:Sending packet ...snipped... net.c:673:Sending packet ...snipped... token.c:310:tds_process_login_tokens() util.c:119:Changing query state from IDLE to DEAD token.c:2252:tds_client_msg: #20004

If you are using FreeTDS, then you can use the included tsql command to try to connect - it looks like this: $ tsql -H sqlserverhost -p 1433 -U user -P password -D tempdb locale is "en_US.UTF-8" locale charset is "UTF-8" using default charset "UTF-8" Setting tempdb as default database in login packet 1> SELECT @@VERSION 2> GO Microsoft SQL Server 2012 - 11.0.2100.60 (X64) Feb 10 2012 19:39:15 Copyright (c) Microsoft Corporation Developer Edition (64-bit) on Windows NT 6.1 (Build 7601: Service Pack 1) (1 row affected) Note Note that I use the -H option rather than the -S option to tsql.
