This chapter describes DB2 Connect security considerations including authentication types. It also provides some additional hints and tips on security for DB2 Universal Database for OS/390 users.
For more information on setting up security with DCE, refer to the Administration Guide, and the database and DCE manuals for your host or AS/400 database server.
| Note: | When using DB2 Connect with DCE security, DCE software is required to be installed at the DB2 client workstation and on the host or AS/400 database server, but it is not necessary to install it on the DB2 Connect workstation. For further information about software prerequisites for DCE, refer to your DB2 Connect Quick Beginnings book. |
