Oracle 9i
Borland JBuilder 7 SE

Hello all:

My goal is to have a Java program _without_ any additional
software (such as OCI or Oracle client) connecting to an
Oracle database server.

All I should need on the clients (Windows XP and Linux) is
Java and the Oracle JDBC driver.

I downloaded the Oracle JDBC driver and managed to install it
(with _very_ little help from Borland, thank you very much)
on JBuilder 7 SE, so I am fine with the XP PCs.

However, I can't figure out how to install the Oracle JDBC
driver on Linux.  I played a little with a variable called
CLASSPATH, but still the driver doesn't seem to be working.

Can anyone give some pointers on this?

Thanks,

-Ramon F Herrera
