I need to access remote DB2 from PHP app

What's the suggested method for accessing data in a remote (on my LAN) IBM DB2 database from my PHP apps?

the client/middle tier machine is RedHat Enterprise Linux 3
I have Apache installed and working
I have PHP installed (but I don't know if it was necessarily compiled as I will need it -- I'm working from an out-of-the-box RedHat Enterprise Linux 3 installation)
DB2 is running on an AS/400 in my LAN and is successfully reachable from other various Windows machines


What is involved in setting up the DSN on this machine (the RHEL box)? Do I need to download an ODBC driver from IBM?

Can anyone point me toward a good web resource, or name a good book on the subject?

Thanks.
