I've set up DB2 CAE many, many times on our NT servers here. We started
with V2.1, and recently upgraded to V5.2 on our NT servers here. We had a
lot of trouble getting it to work initially, mostly due to our funky
network set up (DB2/Datajoiner on Unix to LU6.2 to VTAM to DB2), but it
works pretty reliably now. If you are using a mainframe version of DB2, I
believe the DB2 version must be 5 or higher to run CAE 5.2. I don't know
about the AS400 version.
The CAE goes on the server, not on the PC, if you plan to use it with Cold
Fusion on the server. Some CF java-based functions (e.g. certain functions
of CFGRID) are not supported by the CAE 5.2 ODBC driver, at least not in
our shop.
Here is another link with the CAE download:

I have seen several reports of successful connections to DB2. I think
"Client Access Enabler" is IBM's term for the DB2 client libraries that
most, if not all, client applications would need to have installed in order
to talk to DB2. If you have a DB2 admin around, ask them what IBM software
is generally installed on a workstation to allow it to talk to DB2.

Hello all,
Do any of you have experience with Cold Fusion and a DB2 back end? Allaire
maintains that there is some software called "Client Access Enabler" makes
it possible for Cold Fusion to work with a DB2 database, but I am having
some difficulty getting any information on this software.
Thanks!
Brian
