RE: Oracle DBI on "trusted" hpux

2012-02-07 Thread John Scoles

I wish I could give you a 100% tumbs up on this but...
 
It should work without problems as I have used Oracle Wallet many times before 
and in theory the OCI client and not the perl code should take care of all that 
for you.
 
So if you can connect with DBD::Oracle it should just work.
 
You might need a good deal of tweaking of the ENV to get it to work though
 
Hope this helps

Oracle DBI on "trusted" hpux

2012-02-07 Thread Howard, Chris
kind DBI users,

In order to get some security features that my users
are asking for, it looks like I will need to 
implement "trusted mode" on our HP-UX servers.

Will that have any impact on Perl/DBI scripts that
run correctly in our current, "untrusted mode" environment?

We are using Oracle Wallet to store script credentials.

It seems to me that trusted mode should be ok, but
thought I would check first before bringing the
world crashing down.
