Does it need to be set up like this?

$database = "RDBNAME";
$hostname = "HOSTNAME";
$port = 50000;
$authID = "USERNAME";
$auth_pass = "PASSWORD";


$dsn = "DATABASE=$database;HOSTNAME=$hostname;PORT=$port;
PROTOCOL=TCPIP;UID=$authID;PWD=$auth_pass;";

$i5 = db2_connect($dsn, "", "", "");

I've tried it with and without the port. IIRC, 50000 is the DRDA port.

While I have not tried connecting without the Relational Database Name
being different than what I am connecting to, I think it does need to be
there. I even saw one install where one of the database names was
"localhost". That took some time to figure out why we always got DB/2
data instead of MySQL from the desktop.......

Man...I'm having a problem connecting to a remote i using the
db2_connect.
My PHP code works fine when I connect to *LOCAL. I'd like to run my PHP
code
on the same i as it is now, but have the db2_connect point to a different
i.
What do I need to do to access the other i? I've googled and checked out
the
Zend manual, but the connection fails regardless of my technique. Anyone
have an example? Do I need a server running that would normally run at
port
50000? Do I use the database name in relational database directory?
Thanks!
