-----Original Message----- From: Justin Derrick [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: dinsdag 29 januari 2002 17:06 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Accessing a remote DB I'd be curious to know if any of the DBD modules support this -- it would be remarkable to be able to pick data off my servers without installing anything on them (which is frowned upon by management in general). Are their any tips or tricks for accessing database remotely that already exist? (I don't know why, but ODBC pops into my head, although I don't know if it supports this functionality.) -JD. >Hi All, > >I'm using DBI to access a local DB2 database on our AIX machine. >No problems there.
