I have two database servers, there are some differences between the way that perl dbd/dbi is installed on these machines, but both are running HP-UX and Oracle 10g.
I am trying to use external password store (oracle wallet) to change scripts with embedded login information to be more secure. On server B, I configured oracle wallet to use the $HOME/.sqlnet.ora file. It work fine with sqlplus and with a very simple perl script. On server A, I configured oracle wallet the same way and it works fine with sqlplus, but the same simple perl script gives me "invalid username/password" errors. I have some version differences between the two machines. Server B is using DBI 1.601, DBD 1.16, Perl 5.8.8 Server A is using DBI 1.43, DBD 1.16, Perl 5.8.5 I may be able to get them eventually on exactly parallel versions but that will take quite a bit of time and effort. Any hope for forward progress otherwise? Chris Howard
