Re: iSeries as remote SQL server

ODBC or JBDC work well from intel platforms. Trick is finding the right 
ODBC or JBDC etc. CA/400 has one for Windows and I believe there are a 
number of other out there as well.

        Subject:        iSeries as remote SQL server


Is there a way to easily, efficiently and inexpensively access the iSeries 

database from a remote client machine?  In my case, the remote client is 
an 
intel box running unix or windows.  I'd like to be able to use both types 
of machines as clients.

Using Perl/MySQL I routinely do things like:

sub _update_account {
   my $self = shift;

   $self->dbh->do( qq{ UPDATE account
                       SET last_tran_invoiced = ?, last_invoice = ?
                       WHERE id = ? },
                   undef,
                   $self->inv->{thru_sequence},
                   $self->inv->{invoice_date},
                   $self->inv->{accountid});
}

Sure would be nice to be able to do the same with an iSeries as the 
target.
