Re: perl dbi dbd

I'm in the process of doing the same thing. You can go to http://www.cmve.net/~merijn for a compiled version of Perl 5.8.1 that is "prepared" from DBI and DBD::Oracle. That will save you from compiling it yourself. My understanding is that you will still need gcc (or the HP ansi compiler) to compile DBI and DBD::Oracle.

If I get that working, I'll let you know. Right now, I can't proceed because I don't have root access on the box.
