To connect PHP and Oracle you need to install the Oracle Server on the Linux, the client do not compile with PHP, and PHP 4 only, never get any result with PHP 3 ...
You have to compile PHP with the --OCI8 option and then when you make a script just OCILogon on the good server which could be any computer ... :)
