i need to connect to an oracle server on a different box than my web server.
i have the IP, username, password, database, and table, but the oracle and oracle 8 logon functions don't seem to ask for an IP (i am assuming that they assume the database server is local)
do i need to use ODBC or what? i am a mysql freak, so i don't even want to do this, but i have to.
could someone explain step by step what i need to do to make my solaris, apache, php box talk to oracle?
thanks!
