The first parameter should not be a host name but the name of the
configuration form the freetds.conf file. Did you configure this?

Description:
------------
I've been having some issues with mssql_connect. I'm trying to connect
to an MS-SQL 2000 database from PHP on a Linux server running PHP 5.1.6,
but the mssql_connect() function always gives me the same error message
saying it can't connect to the server.

I also tried connecting to the same server from my local machine
(Windows XP Pro, PHP 5.2.5) with the same results. However, I wrote a
quick python script using pymssql and that worked fine from this
machine. I also set up an ODBC connection on this machine and connected
from PHP via odbc_connect(), which also worked fine. The mssql_connect()
problems are the same whether mssql.secure_connection is set to Off or
On in the php.ini

Reproduce code:
---------------
$db = mssql_connect('hostname', 'username', 'password');

if(!$db) {
    die('<h2>Massive failure</h2>');
}

Expected result:
----------------
Should connect to database not print any errors

Actual result:
--------------
Warning: mssql_connect() [function.mssql-connect]: Unable to connect to
server: host.name.of.server in /var/www/html/filename.php on line 28
