Question : Database synchronization between MySQL and AS400

We have an Internet application that calls a MySQL database on a remote server programmed in PHP. We also have an in-house application that references an AS400 database. The data that for the online application is contained in the AS400. Currently, we have Navicat that runs a batch transfer each night to copy the tables between the AS400 over to the MySQL database.

What we need is a real-time, or close to real-time synchronization between the two systems. We have looked at Qmirror, but that only syncs one direction. Any ideas? What about middleware that resides on a Windows Machine that can connect two ODBC resources?

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. So far, we have stumped our AS400 programmer.

Thanks!
