First, please take a look at the README file (and some JDBC
tutorial). In the simplest case it is something like

Class.forName("com.internetcds.jdbc.tds.Driver");
Connection conn = 
DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:freetds:sqlserver://servername/database", 
user, password);

and then do whatever your application needs to do with the Connection
object.

There is a readily compiled JAR file or you can use the Makefile that
comes with the source distribution.
