- With the latest version of OS/2 Extended Services Database Manager
- it is possible to connect to AS/400 with OS/2, DOS, and Windows
- acting as application requesters, via the DDCS/2 product.
- An OS/2 implementation of the DRDA architecture.
- In that case DOS or DOS/Windows would install the DBM client code,
- connect to a DBM multi-user server on an OS/2 machine.
- On top of this OS/2 DBM you would have to install DDCS/2 multi-user
- version. Connection to AS/400 is via LU 6.2, APPC.
-
- C is one of the supported languages.
- Communication is handled by OS/2 Communications Manager.
- In fact your application doesn't have to be aware that it is talking to
- a remote AS/400 database. If it uses the SAA SQL subset,
- it could run unchanged on an OS/2 database or DB2 database, etc.
- I hope this is of use to you.

- I work for Gupta Technologies, Inc. in Menlo Park, CA. We
- make frontend and backend database tools, including
- a C/API that runs with MS Windows. We are about to
- release _SQLRouter for AS/400_ which will let you use
- our C/API to connect to SQL databases on an AS/400.
-
- The connection is not through NetWare. Instead, its uses
- IBM communications software (I do not remember the name
- of the package). You can run the IBM comm. software on
- the same network as Novell. (Most of our other products
- do run on NetWare.)
-
- I do not have any more details, but you can call our
- office in Germany:

- 49-89-7481210
