Once I was involved with exposing DB2/400 tables on DB2 on an RS6000. One of the things we found was that, because every file on the AS400 is a table, it was vital to specify a filter on table names before connecting, otherwise the connection awaited the gathering of every single file name on the AS400 machine! (The ODBC configuration tool has 23 tabs!)
