Retrieve Oracle Version

Hello.



I am a Unix administrator, learning Oracle.  I'd like to have a Perl
script run and collect the Oracle version from numerous servers, all
running HP-UX.



I know that I can log in via sqlplus as the system user and run "SELECT
* FROM V$VERSION" however, I was wondering if there was a way to get
the Oracle version without accessing the system views.  Ideally, I'd
like to do this without connecting to the DB at all.



I appreciate any help.


Tom
