Re: Did it. still WARNING: Failed to load the sqljdbc_auth.dll cause :- no sqljdbc_auth in java.library.path – Mike Oct 7 at 14:03

you have to add the path to sqljdbc_auth.dll by adding this under VM arguments in Eclipse or commandline if you're running from the shell: -Djava.library.path="\MS SQL Server JDBC Driver 3.0\sqljdbc_3.0\enu\auth\x86"

that's if you're running 32 bit Windows. else the final subdir changes accordingly.

I think this might be a better answer though, to setting up SQL Server user based authentication: Connecting SQL Server 2008 to Java: Login failed for user error
