But as far as Oracle says (I received an official statement from their support via third party), there is no such thing as 'Oracle Client' for BSD, this platform is definitly not supported. And as long as PHP does not compile without it... Also I know now, that I would need the SQLNet-Library, which is a platform dependent .a-File, which doesn't exist for BSD/OS either. I think I will try my luck using Oracle for Linux, compile PHP on Linux and then try to talk to the database on NT. Thanks, ~~~:-Jochen -- Abandon the search for Truth; settle for a good fantasy.
