AIX connection to Solaris db's

Hi all, We have Informix DS 7.23 running well on Solaris 2.6 and applications written in ESQL/C 7.23. Some clients of ours are requesting information out of our databases - so we are looking at porting one of our applications to a IBM AIX machine and setting up a remote connection to the db's on the Solaris box. I have no experience with AIX and was hoping that someone out there may give me a hand in terms of the software necessary to make this happen. I have checked out TFM and the FAQ. Some help - but I need the dummy version! Will we need to recompile the ESQL on the AIX box? Will the Informix SDK for AIX be necessary? Will the AIX box require a hosts,services, and sqlhosts file? Any setup help will sure help.... thanks, Maria -------------------------------------------------------- Maria L.
