FreeTDS is an open-source implementation of the TDS (Tabular DataStream) database client access protocol and related libraries used by Sybase and Microsoft.

FreeTDS supports all versions of the protocol from both vendors, and includes DB-Lib, CT-Lib, and ODBC libraries.

What's New in This Release:
As with prior releases, this version supersedes all others.
Db-lib timeout handling was corrected (error handlers can now force the called function to fail).
For Microsoft servers, support for named instances and for encrypted connections was added.
Partial placeholder support for ct-lib was added.
For ODBC, compute-row handling was corrected, support for paramsets and constant parameters was added, and compatibility with DBD::ODBC was improved.
