@Rob - Thanks for the advise of not hard coding the IP address and rather
   using the host name.  I tried a test and where the IP had worked the host
   name does not work
   I'm looking at "Why do I get java.sql.SQLException: "Network error
   IOException: Connection refused: connect" when trying to get a
   connection?" on the jtdswebsite ([1]
http://jtds.sourceforge.net/faq.html)
   @Luis - The default port for jtds is 1433.
   @Larenzo - When I attempted a test switching from using the IP address to
   the host table entry it failed.  See @Rob.
   I'm doing more research to see where the error is...

 If the ip address worked but the host name didn't work, maybe the Host Name for the SQL Server need to be in the TCP/IP host table on the IBM i.
