Juergen,
You don't need a special version of perl anymore (with Sybase too). Wat you need is a recent perl 5, a module named "DBI", and a module named "DBD::Oracle" (DBD::Sybase for Sybase). More information can be found at
<http://www.arcana.co.uk/technologia/perl/DBI/> Despite the caveat warnings you'll find everywhere in the DBI docs, this is pretty stable technology with a large user base. Support for Oracle 8 comes straight out of the box (almost) Cheers,

        Davide
