The Client Configuration Assistant helps you manage your database
connections to remote DB2 servers. The Client Configuration Assistant
is available on OS/2 and Windows 32-bit operating systems. Use the

Client access is automatically set up for that database.

automatically define your connections. Client access is automatically
set up for that database.

connection parameters.
- Remove cataloged databases, or change the properties of a cataloged
database.
- Test connections to local or remote databases identified on your
