RE: [PHP-DB] Oracle Client to connect to remote DB From: Anthony Carlos (anthony <email protected>)

Yes, it can be installed via command line. There is mention of it in the
installation guide. I've never been able to make it work, however, and I
don't believe that Oracle is supporting it as much as its GUI Universal
Installer.

On the other hand, I have used the Universal Installer over an ssh
connection that forwards X-Windows packets. Therefore, I was able to use it
remotely via an X-Windows terminal on my PC.

Do you know if the Oracle client can beinstalled via the command line? I
don't have access to the box itself, only telnet access.
