You won't need anything extra to setup the Linux machine. You'll just need to configure the listener, maybe you already have that done. You WILL need to download the Oracle ODBC drivers for windows. You load the drivers, configure data sources to connect to Oracle on Linux via SQL*Net, then you can have your windows apps talk ODBC to Oracle.
