Question : Configuring Sybase ASE-15 for remote access

I have a fresh installation of Sybase ASE-15_0 on Fedora 9
I'm able to log in locally, using command isql -Ssybase -Usa -P
When I attempt to access this instance remotely with some front-end tool like RazorSQL, I get "connection refused: error.
Is there something I should do to enable remote TCP access?

Here is my interfaces file:

[sa@public sybase]$ cat interfaces

PUBLIC_MS
        master tcp ether public 5004
        query tcp ether public 5004


PUBLIC_XP
        master tcp ether public 5005
        query tcp ether public 5005




sybase_BS
        master tcp ether public 5001
        query tcp ether public 5001


sybase_MS
        master tcp ether public 5002
        query tcp ether public 5002


sybase_XP
        master tcp ether public 5003
        query tcp ether public 5003



sybase
        master tcp ether public 5006
        query tcp ether public 5006

Answer : Configuring Sybase ASE-15 for remote access

Hang on, I thought you were accessing a remote ASE server from here.  No, you are acessing this server from a remote point, so Exactly what method are using using to "access this instance remotely" ?

The first thing you have to do is:
- come up withh a correct interfaces file (which contains all ASE servers.  here you have one and a half)
- propagate the interfaces file to each system that contains an ASE server
- the windoze equivalent of an interfaces file is:
c:\sybase\ini\sql.ini
- get that file containing the same contents (slightly diff format) as interfaces
- every client PC needs to have Sybase Open Client installed, that will create the directory structures, and an initial sql.ini file (for you to figure out the content)
- propagate sql.ini to every client PC


Also, check my comments on your previous question FIRST, you server names need correcting before you do the above.
