Jim:

I am between engagements. So I don't have  a machine to try this stuff.

I agree with Bob. It is time to talk to support.

Ask them What is ../../../pahpux/bin//libcogudasql.sl? and when should it 
have been install?

Maybe they can send you a zipped version if you don't have one.

I didn't look very hard at IBM article. I thought it would show you which 
client you have.
There maybe a call that you could make to one of the IBM command line 
utilities that would show
that information. It has been awhile since I have used DB2.

Regards,
Peter
