Ok, here is what you need to do:

- Make sure you are running DB2 Connect Version 5 Fixpak 6 on your
Solaris Server.
- From DB2 Connect create a catalog for your database
   - At the command prompt type the following
   - catalog tcpip node "as400 or any name" remote "as400 hostname or ip
address" server "port number"
   - catalog database "dbname" as "dbalias" at node "same as previous
line" authentication dcs
   - catalog dcs database "dbname" as "dbalias"
   - connect to the database using an assigned username and password to
check if cataloging was successful

Then once the connection is confirmed go into your CF Administrator and
setup your connection with a username a password, then test. The
connection should be successful.

If you have anymore questions, let me know.
