I'm trying to follow the instructions you referenced. However, I've noticed a couple issues:

1

sudo apt-get install iSeriesAccess(your version).deb

shouldn't it be...

sudo deb -i iSeriesAccess(your version).deb

2.

Two packages, libstdc++5-3.3-dev and libxaw6 could not be found. I found the .deb for each of them at http://packages.debian.org/lenny/i386/--packageNameHere--/download and installed them.

After this, 5250 worked fine, but after ODBC configuration, I could not connect to the i.

Jim,

Here's what worked for me.

http://archive.midrange.com/pctech/200806/msg00001.html

That was a couple years ago, and gave me the 5250 client. I seem to recall that ODBC was not part of the bundle at that time, but I'm not sure about that. Don't know the status of ODBC.

Like other's, we're running the TN5250J emulator, now.

-Nathan.

Hi

I'm trying to get iSeries Access for Linux running on Ubuntu. I found a
few links on the web that walk you through it, but not for the latest
(9.10) version of Ubuntu. Therefore, the dependencies are off and I
can't seem to hit on the right combo to make it work. Anyone out there
have luck getting it setup? My goal is to get ODBC access to my i from
my Ubuntu workstation.

-Jim
