It's been a while, but I do not think it can be done successfully.
I have used a product in the past called Lasso
http://www.blueworld.com/blueworld/ that sounds like it
may be your best bet if you wish to stick with FileMaker.

Lasso connects directly to FileMaker unlimited.

  A quick Googling indicates that there is a FileMaker JDBC driver, but that
  it's not quite up to spec, poorly built, and is only available when you buy
  FileMaker Server.  Since JDBC is all CF understands, I think you're going to
  be stuck for a native connection.  You might be able to bridge it across
  ODBC or something, but who knows if that's even possible, let alone stable.

  Cheers,
