You can set up DB2 on 390 as a DRDA-AR, purchase Websphere Federation
Server on an Intel/Unix/Linux box and set it up as a DRDA-AS, and have
the Websphere Federation Server in turn connect to the Oracle database
on VMS. So you issue the SQL on DB2/390, it is passed to the Federation
Server on Intel/Unix/Linux, and then the Federation Server "translates "
to Oracle on VMS. Only question I have is whether Oracle on VMS is
supported by Federation Server. I believe that the only requirement is a
supported version of SQLNet/Net8 that can run on the Federation server,
but I'm not sure.

My question here is, is WebSphere Federation Server really with $125,000? I
almost had a heart attack when I saw that price. And I was really looking
forward to utilizing it, too.
It seems like it'd be nice if pricing were based on the number of different
source types you are federating. We only want to talk to Oracle, and we
have need for the dozen or so others, so why pay for it?
Ah well...

Hmmm. I didn't know the price ... not something I usually get involved
with. It's predecessor, Websphere II had pricing based on processors and
on # of backend data sources. Not sure why it's changed. Do you have an
IBM rep you can ask?

I have a problem getting ADOdb working with Oracle 9i. Before I tried to connect to Oracle, I successfully connected to an MS Access table via a DSN, and looped through all the records in that table, so I am pretty sure ADOdb is installed correctly, but I could be wrong. To connect to Oracle 9i, I first go in and un-comment extension=php_oci8.dll and extension=php_oracle.dll in the php.ini file, but when I do that, the CGI script always...

Now I'm very confused. a) Do you still need ODP.NET with framework 2.0? b) Do you need to download and install other...
