Oracle server doesn't need to be installed, but the client libraries do. You need to install those. If you're on a platform that you cannot or do not want to install the Oracle client software on, you can install DBD::Oracle on the server and use DBD::Proxy on the client. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <http://learn.perl.org/> <http://learn.perl.org/first-response>
