Re: DRDA Exit Point

That's right, ODBC is not the same thing as DRDA - not even related, although 
they both provide ways to get data from remote databases. You have to have a 
DRDA provider, known as an ARD or application requester driver. This is 
equivalent to an ODBC driver or OLE/DB provider. These need to be provided by 
the maker of the database. Hardly any RDBMS' have done this for the iSeries.

An iSeries can connect with another iSeries or with any DB2 system with DRDA, 
so that is probably where this comes into play.
