How can I synchronize Lotus Connections DB2 with Domino LDAP?

[john do]

Hi,

can I synchronize the DB2 Databasefields form Lotus Connections direct
with the Lotus Domino LDAP Server?

Hi John,

Going "behind the api" to access db tables directly is always
risky business, and your work can break when LC comes
with new releases. However, if you want to read from
DB2 or any other RDBMS you use the JDBC Connector.
There is a video here showing how to do this with TDI 7
using the bridge from JDBC to ODBC on Windows:

Of course, for DB2 you will need a DB2-style JDBC URL,
like this:

jdbc:db2://hostname.com:50000/DBNAME

And use the DB2 driver

com.ibm.db2.jcc.DB2Driver

You will also need to make the license file
(db2cc_license_c.jar) available to TDI. More
info on this here:

Hope this help!
