RE: [PHP-DB] Oracle Client to connect to remote DB From: Brian S. Dunworth (brian <email protected>)

Jeff,

  As far as I know, you cannot get *only* the Oracle client for Linux.
 When I called Oracle Worldwide Support and asked for one, they sent me the
whole Oracle 8i installation package for Linux. No problem, though -- when
you start the install on your Linux machine, you can choose to install only
the client. That's what I did, and it's working fine connecting to the
Oracle 8i database on our Sun.

Subject: [PHP-DB] Oracle Client to connect to remote DB

I read a post on faqt.com that said that I could connect to a remote Oracle
DB if I had the Oracle client installed. Does anyone know where I can get
a
copy of only the client for Linux? I don't want to install the whole
Oracle
package, I use MySQL on the server, but have a client that is needing to
connect to an Oracle DB on their server from mine.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Jeff
