passwordless odbc connection

DB2 9.7 FP4 on windows

I have an ODBC data source defined for the SAMPLE database on the server.
I am opening MSAccess on the same server and trying to Import External Data.

When using the DSN Name SAMPLE, it pormpts for a userid and password.

Is it possible to configure the ODBC DSN not to prompt for a user and password, but use the log on credentials (like using a DB2 command window without password) ?

Thanks
