In order to run any of these database extensions (Oracle, Sybase, MS-SQL Server, etc.), you must have that database server's client libraries/software installed. The extensions rely on client software in order to run (the client connectivity IS NOT bundled into the database extensions). The extensions merely act as a "go betweeen" for the client software.
