RE: [PHP-DB] Oracle Client to connect to remote DB
Yes, it can be installed via command line. There is mention of it in the installation guide. I've never been able to make it work, however, and I don't believe that Oracle is supporting it as much as its GUI Universal Installer. On the other hand, I have used the Universal Installer over an ssh connection that forwards X-Windows packets. Therefore, I was able to use it remotely via an X-Windows terminal on my PC.

RE: [PHP-DB] Oracle Client to connect to remote DB
Jeff, When you run the graphical Oracle Installer program (require X-Windows), you can choose a custom installation and specify what you want to install. I don't know if you can get just the client for Linux, but the server software includes the client software. You can demo the software from technet.oracle.com. I have no idea how much it costs by itself.
