Ooh!

I followed the instructions under the heading of 'OLE DB Provider IBMDASQL' at:

http://www.mcpressonline.com/database/db2/db2-integration-with-sql-server-2005-part-i-linked-server-enhancements.html

...and although I can't drill down into anything (because--I presume--there was no command setting initial library), I can do a select against my iSeries!

Now, I'm going to see if I can specify a default library, and set up some syncronicity to SQL Server tables from my iSeries. If you guys have any other suggestions to make this more straightforward, feel free to pass them along!
