I remember that IBM made several DB2/Apache enhancements and also
enhancements to work/recognize OS/400 security and for Apache to recognize
all or part of QSYS.LIB file system.  Don't remember all the details as it's
been a year or more since I looked into this.  There is a document floating
around on IBM's website on this.  You'll have to dig a bit to find it but
it's there and it contains some fairly detailed info on just what they did.

If you're really interested, I could try to find the information I have.
