I'm not a Windows Programmer, but the technology behind MOSS 2007 / SPS
3.0 is .NET 2.0, in which including any .NET code is easily possible.
IBM offers a standard ADO database access .NET piece that ships with
iSeries Access
See:
http://www-03.ibm.com/servers/eserver/iseries/access/dotnet/
It might make sense to get someone with SPS experience on the boat to
get such a connectivity done in sufficient time - .NET is radically
different from the programming perspective on the System i.

Subject: iSeries and Sharepoint portal
Our campus adopted Microsoft Sharepoint portal for our intranet.
Sharepoint portal has the typical executive dashboard portlet (webpart
in MS world) but as far as I can tell from all the documentation I read
the data referenced by the portlet has to reside in SQL Server but all
of our data resides in DB2/400. Has anyone worked in a Sharpoint/iSeries
environment and been able to link the two different worlds?
