How can I connect to Sybase using FreeTDS?

My freetds.conf

# /usr/local/etc/freetds.conf
#   $Id: freetds.conf,v 1.12 2007/12/25 06:02:36 jklowden Exp $

# This file is installed by FreeTDS if no file by the same 
# name is found in the installation directory.

# Global settings are overridden by those in a database
# server specific section

        # TDS protocol version
;   tds version = 4.2

    # Whether to write a TDSDUMP file for diagnostic purposes
    # (setting this to /tmp is insecure on a multi-user system)
    dump file = /tmp/freetds.log
;   debug flags = 0xffff

    # Command and connection timeouts
;   timeout = 10
;   connect timeout = 10

    # If you get out-of-memory errors, it may mean that your client
    # is trying to allocate a huge buffer for a TEXT field.  
    # Try setting 'text size' to a more reasonable limit 
    text size = 64512

# A typical Sybase server
[egServer50]
    host = symachine.domain.com
    port = 5000
    tds version = 5.0

# A typical Microsoft server
[egServer70]
    host = ntmachine.domain.com
    port = 1433
    tds version = 7.0

[myserver]
    host = myserver.com
    port = 5000
    tds version = 5.0

My sybase.php:

<?php

$server = 'myserver';
$user   = 'user';
$pwd    = 'pwd';
$db     = 'db';

@sybase_connect($server, $user, $pwd) or die('Cannot connect');

echo "OK\n";

It works just fine when I ran it through CLI, php sybase.php. But it won't connect when I ran it through webserver. Does anyone has any idea what's wrong with my code?

I've also tried putting

putenv("FREETDSCONF=/usr/local/etc/freetds.conf");

but nothing happens, I've even tried putting wrong path to freetds.conf before sybase_connect() and the code will still run fine (using php sybase.php but not through webserver).

BTW, I got these errors everytime I restart my apache:

<br />

I didn't uncomment ;extension=php_sybase_ct.dll in my php.ini since I'm working in Linux. I've checked my phpinfo() and I can see sybase_ct section in it. I built my PHP using these arguments:

Just solved the problem. Apparently, I need to do these:

1. Make sure the log file is writable by others: chmod o+w /tmp/freetds.log
2. I cannot use domain name in the config file, I'd have to use the IP address of the server.

My new /usr/local/etc/freetds.conf:

[myserver]
    host = 10.10.10.10
    port = 5000
    tds version = 5.0

My errors in /tmp/freetds.log when I use domain name:

config.c:257:Success: [myserver] defined in /usr/local/etc/freetds.conf.
iconv.c:363:iconv to convert client-side data to the "ISO-8859-1" character set
iconv.c:516:tds_iconv_info_init: converting "ISO-8859-1"->"UCS-2LE"
login.c:405:IP address pointer is empty
login.c:407:Server myserver not found!

p/s: I'm not sure what I did, but I'm not getting errors PHP trying to load php_sybase_ct.dll anymore.
