# There are native FreeBSD libraries (OCI). You can get them, for example,

	If these are the same ones that I came across months ago (I'm
pretty sure they are) then I was able to make the work with perls
DBD:Oracle nicley, but they gave me endless fits trying to work with php's
Oracle support.

	If someone has made these work with php I'd be thrilled!  I've
tried many, many times to make them compile with php but it's never worked
so far.

# DBD::Oracle can be built using these libraries, don't know about php
