Is this correct? If so, what about the ODBC driver included with IBM's Client Access for Windows? Can IBM's client access software be installed on a Windows 2008 R2 web or app server to connect to UDB on an iSeries v6r1 or v7r1 without any additional licensing requirements? I'm new to the whole iSeries and DB2 thing, the information on IBM's website is very vague and confusing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
