Subject: Connect to Windows Sybase server from Linux?

I'm trying to establish a connection to our existing Win 2k3 Sybase server
from an Ubuntu machine in order to generate some reports. From what I've
read, the php5-sybase should allow PHP to talk to the server, but I can't
get it to work. The error I'm getting from the apache error log is "PHP
Warning:  sybase_connect(): Unable to connect to server: 192.168.1.201"
which, as you can see, doesn't give a whole lot of information.

Does anyone have any experience with Sybase and Linux who can please help me
out?
------------------------------

Is Sybase listening on the TCP/IP port?
Is the firewall for that port open on the Win2K3 host?
Is the Sybase user you're using to connect with allowed to connect from your
192.168.1.201 client?
