DRDA Connections

[lynchdog]

I was wondering if somebody could give me some information on DRDA connections. They are the only kind of connection I appear to be able to make between the db servers. The reason for this is that the db runs on W2K in a DMZ and in my new company they have the machines locked down pretty tight. Any information on what a DRDA connection is or other information would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks In Advance!!
