      <title>Named SQL Server Instances with FreeTDS</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;
&lt;a href="http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.db.tds.freetds/9182"&gt;A helpful post on accessing named sql server instances using freetds&lt;/a&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;
I was having a lot of trouble doing that. Turns out the 'instance' key exists. As far as I could find it wasn't in the doc anywhere, so this is just a post in the hope that it'll save somebody else some time in the future.
&lt;/p&gt;

From the post:
&lt;pre class="code"&gt;
[def]
host = abc
instance = def
port = 1433
client charset = UTF-8
tds version = 8.0
&lt;/pre&gt;
