DBD-Sybase 1.07, FreeTDS 0.63, HPUX 11.11: Build problem (make test)

Hello,

I am trying to use freetds (0.63) as the library for DBD::Sybase (1.07) to
communicate with MS SQL 2000 servers. After the build, it does not appear
that DBD::Sybase reconizes the freetds config file
(/usr/local/freetds/freetds.conf), in particular for defining which
host+port make up the Server. I even tried it in the local `pwd`. Most
importantly, 'make test' fails and will not complete the install.

Also, the "connect" method complains about accepting host+port arguments,
and seems to want a "Server", only. The manpage says it accepts host+port.

I am operating in a HPUX 11.11 environment, and have the DBD::Sybase
statically linked using the freetds libs. Without passing the 'make test'
target, DBD::Sybase does not fully install (complains about not found in
@INC). I am using Perl 5.8.7, and DBI-1.48. The "make test" appears to
fail because it tries to use a non-existent (standard) Sybase server and
connect params.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, in advance.

Rick
