Yes, I can telnet there. I'm not certain what prompt (if any) I should get
from that host/port. All I see is "Escape character is '^]'" followed by
"Connection closed by foreign host" a minute later.

This same Linux box runs PHP scripts which pull data from the same MSSQL
server (across the LAN), so I know a connection is at least possible in
theory.

The interfaces file has the following definition for the MSSQL box:

sqlServer
        query tcp tds4.2 10.10.10.14 1433


and the PWD file in the DBD-Sybase-0.91 directory used for 'make test' has
the line 'SRV=sqlServer' along with a valid username and password. I have
also tried running 'make test' with 'SRV=10.10.10.14:1433' and received the
same errors.

Specifically, the Linux box is a Cobalt RaQ3 with 512 MB RAM (one of those
rack-mountable web servers designed to be easy enough to use even for the
likes of me), if that sheds any light on the problem.
