Protocol encryption uses SSL APIs implemented in NT. Type 4 JDBC drivers
have a problem in that they are not allowed to directly call system dlls.
There is no library in Java 1.4 or below that emulates the protocol
encryption behavior of SSL from Windows NT.

If your JDBC application requires protocol encryption to SQL 2000, you will
have to use alternate method of encryption such as IPSEC or use a suitable
SSL enabled Type 3 JDBC Driver.
