Michelle & John> Yes, that's exactly what I am trying to accomplish. I am
setting up a network monitoring application for our support personnel, and
I have multiple people all examining data that gets reported to a central
database. So I didn't relish the idea of installing postgres on all of the
support personnel workstations.
Jeff> Thanks for the tip about DBI::Proxy. That seems to be the missing link,
as I've also run into this problem with MySQL in addition to Postgres.
MySQL does have a libs-only rpm that you can use for installing the
MySQL DBD without having MySQL locally, but DBI::Proxy may be an even cleaner
solution.
Thanks everyone for the dialogue, it has been very useful!
