 That's not true. TDS 2.1 Includes an install options for "Tivoli 3.11 ODBC

 not have an NT ODBC driver for the TDS box. IBM's site is so convoluted I
 can't find one there either. If anyone knows I'd appreciate some help! thx

While you are correct that TDS contains those drivers, Tivoli support
told me not to use them--they're rather old. You're probably *way*
better off putting the database on the same box as TDS, which means
installing DB2 for NT. That's how I got TDS running.[1]

[1] Running is a misnomer. TDS limped badly on bloody stumps for a
while; it is definitely *not* a trivial install. I also got it running
with SQL Server, which is actually the easiest database engine to deal
with.

Gerald,

actually, TDS doesn't include any ODBC drivers. The ODBC driver is provided
by your DB manufacturer. So, you should use the ODBC driver that is
provided by DB2, probably in some client package)
