Teradata V2R6 connection failing

Hi guys,

I am working on a basic script to connect from a Windows 2000 Pro
machine to a Teradata V2R6 box, but at the moment am unable to even
establish a connection.

I am using ActiveState Perl 5.8.7 and have compiled and installed the
following modules from CPAN:

Crypt-Blowfish-2.10
DBD-Teradata-1.20
Math-BigInt-1.77


When I run the test script in the DBD-Teradata directory, it first
fails with no output after the first line. I can ping the dbccop1
correctly, and have also tried using the straight IP address with the
same results.

-------------------------------------------------
H:\Infrastructure\Perl\GIS_Source_Code\DBD-Teradata-1.20>per l test.pl
Logging onto dbccop1 as E0xxxx...
-------------------------------------------------


After reading the post by Dean Arnold at
http://www.mail-archive.com/dbi-users@perl.org/msg25469.html
I changed the test script to use the DBI::PurePerl module and ran
again
but it fails with the following output. I have had a look around and
it
seems like this is a fairly deep problem to do with the Teradata
module.

-------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------


Has anyone been able to connect successfully or has seen this problem
and can suggest a solution?

I have used the most current modules I can find from CPAN for
everything, but if there is a more recent version I can try then that
would be good.

Thanks

Tim Jelliffe
