Still sounds like your connect string. I am not familiar with your package, but the passwd type response leads me to deduce you are trying to connect as internal or with a 'sysba' privileged role. I.e., it points me to the login/connect string. ('Userid' and 'database' fields of the ODBC SQLCA is also similar.)
