You can try the old fashion way:

1) Allow Telnet sessions on your Windows 2000 Server.
2) Telnet from a remote session and log on.
3) cd to the appropriate direcotory, invoke a DB2 prompt by typing DB2.
(Before invoking the db2 prompts, the DB2 commands will be executable).
4) type in connect to <database name> with the appropriate login and
password

With the proper settings, you should be able to connect and access DB2.

Hope this helps.
