We are running iPlanet App Server SP3 on both Solaris, NT4, and Win2K using
Merant's Type4 JDBC Drivers for SQL Server, and they work great!
You can download a 30 Day eval from
http://www.merant.com/products/datadirect/download/eval/Licenses/connect_java.asp
* Add the 4 Merant jars to to the iPlanet classpath (using kregedit).
* Run jdbcsetup and create a new ODBC data source with the following params:
1. Driver Identifier: sqlserver
2. Driver Classname: com.merant.datadirect.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver
3. Driver Classpath: $SDKS_HOME\merant\JDBC\lib\sqlserver.jar
4. Third Party Native: (leave blank)
Then register using resreg with an xml file similar to the following:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ias-resource>
<resource>
<jndi-name>jdbc/sqlServer</jndi-name>
<jdbc>
<database-url>jdbc:sqlserver://SERVER:1433</database-url>
<database>DBNAME</database>
<username>USER</username>
<password>pass</password>
<driver-type>sqlserver</driver-type>
</jdbc>
</resource>
</ias-resource>
Hope this helps!
