Curious

I have rails on my linux laptop connecting just fine to SQL Server 2000.
Why can’t I do the same with Ruby from a script or command line. More
precisely, I cannot insert into a database table at all from a script or
command line. (If I had to guess, I would say Rails is smarter than I
when it automagically creates the sql statements.) Can anyone point me
in the right direction on how creating inserts and selects correctly
using TDS, ODBC drivers.

Thanks!
