Note, the driver class is sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver
 
and the connection url is jdbc:odbc:yourdsn
 
 
Hit test, to check the connection:-

Presence Version 3.5.4 uses the java 1.5 JVM which in turn will need the sqljdbc.jar
 
 
Presence Version 3.5.5 uses the java 1.6 JVM which in turn uses sqljdbc4.jar
 
 
As the Presence Jar Manager caches the classes you should restart the server if you have changed the
 
location of a class.
