Please disregard. I finally found the answer -- I need mysql client software on the local box -- in the online documentation.

I'm doing this because I'll be connecting to a remote box from my perl script to query, etc. mysql on the remote box. While using cpan to install the DBD::mysql module, I received the following errors: Can't exec "mysql_config": No such file or directory at Makefile.PL line 167. Failed to determine directory of mysql.h. Use perl Makefile.PL --cflags=-I<dir> Since mysql.h normally lives in $MYSQL/include, I'm thinking that I'll have to install it locally to make this work.
