Folks --
I've been trying to figure out where the Oracle client libraries live, but
I'm confused as hell.
I've read the PHP-DB archives, and everyone keeps talking about installing
the client libraries (libclntsh et al), and how that's all you need for
Oracle 9i PHP support. Great -- but which options presented horribly by
Oracle do I download?
On this page:
http://otn.oracle.com/software/products/oracle9i/index.html
It lists:

I'm running Linux RH Enterprise 3 on this server, and the Oracle box is
remote. My original assumption is to download the second link, 9iR2 for
Linux. However, this is 1.5GB worth of a download for three friggin
drivers. What the hell?
All of the clients are for Windows, Even the 9.0.1 release is 1.1GB.
What do I need to download from Oracle to get the drivers for PHP? Please
don't just say "go to otn.oracle.com and download the client" because I've
been there and cannot for the life of me find it.
I don't have the ability to display X Windows remotely, so whatever
solution has got to be command line. I'm at my wits end!
I've installed Instant Client, so I have the 10g libraries:
/usr/lib/oracle/10.1.0.2/client/lib --> ll

-rw-r--r-- 2 root root 1353081 Feb 23 19:32 ojdbc14.jar
How do I get connected from a remote PHP+Apache box to Oracle9i on linux?
