My understanding is that this project is not active. Somewhat disappointing to me as we have appreciated having one driver for MSSQL and Sybase, but if you're having trouble with SQL Server, I'd suggest using MS's driver. I don't know that there's any advantage to jTDS at this point.
I believe the main maintainer of jTDS has moved on to other things so unless someone else picks up on it, I think it's pretty much inactive at this point.

If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
jTDS lets you connect as an active directory account if you do not have the kerberos credentials for the account but you do have the password. The Microsoft driver does not allow this.

Looking for the newer version with the fix for the following:
https://sourceforge.net/p/jtds/bugs/725/?
Is there any plan or a tentative date for the release?
+1 for the question.
Are there any plans for new release of the JTDS 1.3.x driver?
Thanks in advance
Please release a new version of JTDS 1.3.x driver.
Whitout a fix for 725, SSL doesn't work.
I need it in the next two weeks.
If not, I will be forced to look for another driver.
Thanks
The last release (1.3.1) was back in 2013.
Is this project still active?
If it is, will there be a SQL 2016 and Java 8 release?
It appears that the older releases do actually work, just concerned with compatibility.
All the best.

I risked today to switch from jTDS to the Microsoft MSSQL JDBC driver. It was no problem with the comparison found on this site: Transitioning from jTDS to Microsoft's JDBC driver.
Part of the downloaded ZIP file from here is a useful set of example code. The switch was afterwards not very complicated.
