[Mono-list] DB2 Status? (db2_36.so and DB2 9 Viper, etc)

Take a look at you mono_prefix/etc/mono/config file.

The filename is just config.

Look for a dllmap entry.
Change the target to whatever shared library you have.

If there is no entry there add it. 
An example:

<dllmap dll="db2cli" target="db2_36.so"/>

Or.

<dllmap dll="db2_36" target="db2_90.so"/>

Or.

<dllmap dll="db2_36.dll" target="db2_90.so"/>

dll is the library it is looking for or whatever it is
defined in the DllImport attribute.
target is the library filename to map the dll to.

By the way, the DB2 provider is unmaintained.  Unless,
you care to provide patches. 
So, I recommend using the ODBC provider instead.
