This sounds like your DNS is returning a different name for your machine
(when the IP is used to do a reverse lookup) than your machine claims to
be. Otherwise, mSQL may be setup to use identd to verify the user (I
haven't setup mSQL so I am not sure of its authentication scheme), in this
case, you would need to configure it to "trust" the win98 client.
You should ask this question on a mSQL forum. It is NOT a Java or JDBC
problem.
