    DBI Folks,

        I found the following article:

              http://www.cuddletech.com/articles/oracle/node50.html

        which discusses using the Perl distribution that comes as part of
        the Oracle 10g installation. I spent a few minutes following the
        instructions but couldn't get it to work (Perl was not finding
        core modules like 'English' and 'strict'). With enough digging
        and tweaking I'm pretty sure I'd probably be able to figure out
        what's wrong and fix it. But before I go down that road, my
        question is...

        In the context of hosting CGI/DBI applications, what would be the
        pro's and con's of going with Oracle's distribution of Perl as
        verses the version that ships with Red Hat Enterprise Linux?
        Thanks in advance for insights on this.

                                                          ...BC
