OK, let me give this a shot. According to this IBM article( 
http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/db2/library/techarticle/dm-0512kokkat/  
), IBM referes to a "legacy" driver, it is this driver that we currently use
with our WSAD/WAS implementation. We're attempting to convert over to an
Eclipse environment using Geronimo for development purposes. So, we are
trying to configure a DB2 datasource that we have used in the previous
environment. Up until this point we have utilized the "Legacy" driver both
in code and from a server configuration point of view. All of the turotials
that I have found and inforamtion obtained from this board have discussed
configuring what IBM refers to as the "universal driver". The Legacy driver
requires DLLs to be installed on the machine...and they are since all of
this works with the WSAD environment. What I am left with is how to
configure the datasource descriptor to use the "legacy" driver and what to
copy where within Geronimo. The "Universal driver" install calls for moving
a couple of jar files to the Geronimo/repository/db2/jars directory and
renaming them. However, the "legacy" driver is housed in a .zip file and not
a .jar. Puzzling, but somehow all of this works in WAS and other application
servers I would presume since DB2 works with all of them. 

Any Ideas?
