Ok, A further install question; on my webserver that has no oracle, it seems i need oracle instant client for oracle 9.2, but i am only seeing options for 10.2 or later.
trying to 'perl Makefile.PL', i get the error about LD_LIBRARY_PATH not having ORACLE_HOME, so i added the path as will be true on host B, ... any pointers how to get this install accomplished on my webserver? will instantclient 10.2 work on 9.2? TIA, jackc...
