When I use ODBC drivers to connect to an AS/400 I get this error: SQL error: [IBM][Client Access ODBC Driver (32-bit)][DB2/400 SQL]Communication link failure. COMM RC=0x5, SQL state 08S01 ??? What is wrong?

Brent N, Paul Kessler,

COMM RC of 0x5 indicates "access is denied".  This could be for any 
number of different reasons.  Is there some client access policy 
preventing you from connecting?  Is the AS/400 set-up so that you can 
access it?
