I want a way to access a lot of DBF/DBT/MDX files from FreeBSD. Write access would be good, but read-only access would probably be ok as well. I wish to build command-line and/or web-based interfaces to a few databases which reside on Windows boxen; I access the files via smbfs. I know Perl, and I've seen a DBF add-on for Perl; but I was not convinced of its stability (admittedly I only read about it though). I also don't know how much trouble I'm asking for trying to share Windows database files with active Windows workstations which use another program to access them. Suggestions/recommendations welcome. -- Doug Lee dgl@visi.com http://www.visi.com/~dgl Bartimaeus Group doug@bartsite.com http://www.bartsite.com "All these years, the people said, 'He's acting like a kid.'
