Hello,

AFAIK, DB2 Version 8.x-clients call a set of metadata stored procedures to
gather catalog information from the server side at connect time. This
procedures seem to be missing in servers prior to V7.2. I think it's still
possible, to download a V7.2 personal client from the IBM sites to try it
out....

Cheers & Beers
Walter.
