I think you have two separate issues.  

One is a bug in FreeTDS that causes it to send the local charset name to
Sybase in the login packet.  That provokes a warning from the server that
it won't convert character data.  

AFIAK, though, that won't prevent you from logging in.  I would suspect
the username/password is actually incorrect.  You might try with tsql,
just to double check.
