There is none from IBM. However, any software which uses the type 4 driver
will work with the DB2 jars installed on the Mac client.

Mark was referring to the IBM JCC or Universal JDBC driver.

A java application can use a number of different 'drivers' to connect to
a DB2 database. The IBM "Universal" or "JCC" JDBC driver provides a Type 4
JDBC driver that should work from any client platform that has a java
interpreter.

Only useful if your app is java and you have control over which driver it
uses.

There's also ODBC. I presume there's an ODBC driver for Mac somewhere
out there.
