You should use Perl's DBI module. For drivers, you have two choices: 1. DBD::Oracle. This driver will require Oracle client software on the Linux box (which I think you can get), and will use Oracle SQL*Net as the network transport. 2. DBD::Proxy. This is nice if you can't get Oracle client software for Linux (or don't want to). Here you set up a proxy "listener" on the Windows box and connect from the Linux box using the DBD::Proxy transport, which requires no special libraries or drivers on the client side. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
