I hope you refer to the setup of the ODBC environment, not the
Zope DA itself :-)

To access AS/400 from Linux you need this IBM ODBC driver:

         IBM has an ODBC driver which makes this setup possible. See
         their web-page on the "iSeries ODBC driver for Linux" for
         details:

(hope that URL is still correct)
