We gave up and set up a Linux machine for the job. Thanks for the answer but i think i have not explained clearly what i want :) I have Oracle on Solaris boxes, so no problem for that. What i need is getting PHP4 compiled with OCI8 support on FreeBSD for make queries from those php applications on FreeBSD boxes to the Oracles in the Solaris boxes. I know i need to install the Oracle client libraries on FreeBSD for compiling PHP4 with OCI8 and i've seen a lot of problems with people trying to do this and i have not been able to find a clear answer or solution... that's why my question.
