Re: Accessing VFP9 data from Perl/JSP pages being served from Apache/Linux?

Does it need to be oledb? If not - there is a nice perl library that uses
odbc IN linux for Apache.
Yer PerlGeeks know about it. I've got an url floating around somewhere.

OTOH - if you want to make a bridge with oledb - it can be done - and it's
not a trivial thing - you'll have to purchase
the bridge drivers for the linux box and also for the machine that will hang
off the novell server to make the bridge.
I've got the info from a previous client somewhere floating about - I'll
post it as I find it (rsn).

Is the VFP9 OLEDB provider able to be used under Apache/Linux? We have a
mission critical Linux app that we'd like to have direct access to our
data
(living on a Novell server), but I have no idea how to accomplish that.

Thanks.
