I think --with--ibm-db2 only works as statically linked with apache, no as module.

And do you have the db2 connect librarys instaled in the system ?

I copy here an article that works for my, I dont remenber where I see, maybe in
faqs.com:

The connection from a Linux Web Server 
equipped with Apache and PHP 4 
to an IBM AS/400 (OS400 and DB2/400) 
system is possible and works fine. 
The same connection works with IBM 
mainframes equipped with OS/390, 
MVS/ESA, VM/ESA, VSE/ESA and IBM DB2. 
The only strict requirement is the 
version of OS400 operating system: 
it must be V4R2 with native TCP/IP 
support. 
The following is the hierarchical 
list of Software Layers used in the test. 
++Linux RedHat 6.1 
------(Korn Shell pdksh rpm package required) 
++Apache Web Server 1.3.12 
++PHP 4.0.2 statically linked to Apache 
------ with-ibm-db2 option enabled 
++IBM DB2Connect Personal Edition for Linux 
------ V7.1 free from somewhere in ibm.com 
The IBM DB2 UDB DB2Connect Personal Edition 
installation is performed via Korn shell script 
"db2setup". Use all the features you can select, 
and installl: 
DB2 Administration Client 
DB2 Connect Personal Edition 
Db2 Application Development Client 
The DB2 instance created on Linux is: 
"db2inst1" and password "ibmdb2" (defaulted). 
After this you can install PHP 4 
--with-ibm-db2 option enabled. 
You get some weak compilation warnings 
but don't worry (it would be better they missed). 
For PHP it looks exactly like you had 
installed IBM DB2 UDB Personal Edition 
(the whole DB2 engine "without" DB2Connect). 
On the AS/400 side you have to start 
"drda" tcp servers at port "446" (defaulted). 
On the AS/400 side you need also 
authorized userid and password. 
Along with IBM DB2Connect you get full 
HTML documentation (useful and clear). 
Now return to Linux: 
login as "db2inst1" password "ibmdb2" and 
type: "db2" (DB2 command line processor). 
This is the necessary to inform DB2Connect 
about the reality of DB2400 DataBase on the 
AS/400. Thatis: 
1. 'catalog tcpip node YOUR_FREE_NODE_NAME 
remote TCP_IP_ADDRESS_OF_AS400 
server 446 
remote_instance AS400_SYSTEM_NAME 
system YOUR_FREE_SYSTEM_NAME 
ostype OS400' 
(446 is the default port number of drda server) 
(ostype must be "OS400") 
2. 'catalog dcs database YOUR_DB_NAME 
as DB2400_REAL_NAME' 
(DB400_REAL_NAME is the cataloged name of 
DB2 system in the AS/400 or the RDBNAME of AS/400) 
3. 'catalog database YOUR_DB_NAME as PHP_DB_NAME 
at node YOUR_FREE_NODE_NAME 
authentication DCS' 
(if you choose authentication "SERVER" it doesn't work). 
4. 'connect to PHP_DB_NAME 
user AS400_USERID 
using AS400_PASSWORD' 
5. (Caution to escape double quotes!) 
'bind \"[EMAIL PROTECTED] 
BLOCKING ALL SQLERROR CONTINUE 
MESSAGES DDCS400.MGS GRANT PUBLIC\" ' 
6. 'connect reset' 
7. 'terminate' 
(quit from DB2 Command Line Processor). 

You can now access DB2/400 from a PHP script 
enabled with: 
'putenv 
("LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/db2inst1/sqqlib/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH"); ' 
'putenv ("DB2INSTANCE=db2inst1"); ' 
'odbc_connect(PHP_DB_NAME, AS400_USERID, AS400_PASSWORD);' 

Warning: The Table name referenced in your PHP script 
must be qualified with the "collection" or "library" name 
of AS/400 DB2 system. Example: 
"SELECT * FROM AS400LIB.TABLE" 
The default would be 
"SELECT * FROM DB2INST1.TABLE" (surely wrong). 

Take your fun with AS/400 or Mainframe system!
