ODBC Driver for UNIX
I have no experiance in Unix and I am trying to help our DBAs set up a connection from a Unix Oracle box to a DB2 database on an AS400 server. Does anyone know where I might find a good generic ODBC driver for Unix that should be able to connect to AS400? Any links to sites that would help would be appreciated.
Thank you,
Tim

PDO_IBM DSN - Connecting to IBM databases
The PDO_IBM Data Source Name (DSN) is based on the IBM CLI DSN. The major components of the PDO_IBM DSN are:
o DSN prefix
- The DSN prefix is ibm:.
o DSN
- The DSN can be any of the following:
o a) Data source setup using
db2cli.ini or odbc.ini
o b) Catalogued database name i.e. database alias in the DB2 client catalog
o c) Complete connection string in the following format: DRIVER={IBM DB2 ODBC DRIVER};DATABASE=
database;HOSTNAME= hostname;PORT= port;PROTOCOL=TCPIP;UID= username;PWD= password; where the parameters represent the fol-
lowing values:
o $database
- The name of the database.
o $hostname
- The hostname or IP address of the database server.
o $port
- The TCP/IP port on which the database is listening for requests.
o $username
- The username with which you are connecting to the database.
o $password
- The password with which you are connecting to the database.

Database=testdb
Protocol=tcpip
Hostname=11.22.33.444
Servicename=56789
Example #2
