jTDS supports Windows Authentication, which is what I need.

1. I downloaded jTDS, put the jar file to my directory /opt/data/xxxx

2. I ran

sqoop list-tables -libjars "/opt/data/xxxxxx/jtds-1.3.1.jar" \ --driver "net.sourceforge.jtds.jdbc.Driver" \ --connect "jdbc:jtds:sqlserver://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx\yyyy;domain=ad" \ --username xxxxxx \ --password 'xxxxxx'

3. Error:

......

Any idea of the failure?

Thanks a lot!

Ravi, Thank you so much!

It works. A few things I have observed:

1. In connect string, instance needs to be separated from server.

sqoop list-tables -libjars "/usr/hdp/2.2.8.0-3150/sqoop/lib/jtds-1.3.1.jar" --driver "net.sourceforge.jtds.jdbc.Driver" --connect "jdbc:jtds:sqlserver://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx;instance=yyyy;databaseName=zzzz;domain=ad" --username xxxxxx --password 'xxxxxx'

is the correct format

2. list-tables only list physical tables. Views are not listed

3. When import from MS SQL Server to Hive table. Data type may be changed by default. I see date/datetime is changed to string, bit is changed to boolean.

Overall, it works very well.
