Hi,

I have an Oracle 9i DB running on one server and just want to query it using Perl from a different machine. Basically, the client machine only needs to be able to send SQL queries over the network and receive the answers.

Unfortunately, it seems that the client still needs an Oracle installation (whatever for) and I don't have much harddisk space. Therefore I am wondering: what is the minimum I need on my (Linux) client, and how do I best get it installed?

tia, ciao,
