hi all..
i want to connect my webserver to a remote Oracle server. how do i do this? i know that i have to recompile my PHP with oracle enabled (got that figured out) ... but do i have to install oracle client on my webserver in order to connect my PHP script to the oracle server?
if not, how can i accomplish this? i've been searching around and i'm not quite sure how the remote connection is done. i found posts that saying i have to alter the TNSNAMES.ORA. on which server? coz i didn't found any PHP script that does a connection to a server like (eg. in mysql) :-
mysql_connect( $serverName, $username, $password );
what i found is just connection to a database.
the remote Oracle server is running on windows NT. i don have the information on which version of Oracle running on that server.
please tell what i am missing here..
thanx in advance..
