If DB2 is set up to support only LDAP authentication, is there a workaround to supplying usreid/pwd in the DB source editor in the Hibernate perspective? The dialog mandates a user id /password and DB2 rejects it saying it is against the security policy.

You mean the MyEclipse Database Explorer perspective? Are you trying to setup a DB configuration?

Or is this a Hibernate Tools questions?

This the DB Browser view in the MyEclipse Hibernate perspective.

When you connect to the DB from code or another client, what kind of connection string do you use to supply credentials? I don’t have DB2 setup with a LDAP server so I have no way to check this.

The connection string is as per the DB2 Type 4 driver spec
jdbc:db2://host:port/db_name
The driver class name is com.ibm.db2.jcc.DB2Driver

What happens if you configure the connection like that with no login/pass?
