You'll probably want to just grab the prebuilt jar file from 

  ftp://freetds.internetcds.com/pub/freetds_jdbc/freetds_jdbc.snapshot.jar


You'll need to add it to your CLASSPATH.  From a command window on NT
it would be something like-

   set CLASSPATH=freetds_jdbc.snapshot.jar;the_rest_of_my_classpath

As far as using the driver from VCafe, I've never used that program.
