Are you on Solaris 2.8? If you migrated the OS to 2.8 please contact IBM technical support. There was an issue with some versions of IBM Informix products on Solaris 2.8 due to some changes in the TCP stack. I don't recall the exact details, but I think it gave an error similar to this. If possible try other connections like shared memory. Regards.
