that you can create config files the DBI will use. Is it possible that

giving the DBI the wrong ideas?
One way to think about this that stack of environmental variables, peter had mentioned.
The user may have those in their '.cshrc' or '.bashrc' and hence able to do 'the right thing' from the command line. But one will need to make sure that the 'code' gets them as well. Hence having a config file that will be read only and in a well known place can help make sure that one has them defined and stuffed into the
$ENV{'ORACLE_HOME'}
etc, etc, etc....
