[Python-sybase-misc] pymssql: version problem?

[VV W <vv...@gm...>]

hello experts,

Thanks for all of your replies during the past three days. I installed "
pymssql-0.8.0" instead of "python-sybase-0.39".

>From my test results I see that I could connect to Sybase with "tsql" on
prompt no matter if I use "freetds.conf" or not. However, if I use Python
script as follows

import pymssql
con=pymssql.connect(dbhost, user, password)

the I got
"_mssql.error: Could not connect to MS SQL Server".

I know that there are three "freetds.conf" files. One is in
"/home/my_dir/freetds-0.82/". The second one is in /etc/ and the third one
is in /etc/freetds/. They are all the same. In global section "tds version =
4.2" and in SybaseServer section "tds version = 5.0".   When I installed
"freetds-0.82" I indicted that with-tdsver=4.2.

Why does this Python script try to connect MS SQL Server? Is there any other
place besides freetds that indicates MS-SQL or Sybase? And "tsql" works
correctly on prompt with freestd file.

Any clues how to fix this problem?

Thanks so much. I appreciate your help.
