What is this "another platform" ? Is it another Unix/NT DB2
UDB environment? or are you in trouble with an AS/400 machine?

To access an Unix/NT DB2 UDB use the DB2 UDB 6.1 for Linux, instal the CLI
on the Linux machine, compile PHP using --with-ibmdb2 and use this
commands to catalog the other databases on your client:

$db2 catalog tcpip node db2udb remote db2machine server db2tcp1
$db2 catalog database db2sample as mysample at node db2udb

where: db2udb -> alias for the db2 server on you client
       db2machine -> db2 server name (db2-server.unesc.br)
       db2tcp1 -> db2 udb service port insert it on /etc/services
       db2sample -> database name on server
       mysample -> database alias on client

then try something like this:

$db2 connect to mysample user db2inst1

and you are in :) (via PHP use the ODBC functions)

but if you are trying AS/400, than I'm trying with an V4R4 without
success! They appear to had only windows support :(
