Re: Remote connection to MySQL DB server from client with No MySQL DB

If you use the DBD::mysql Perl module, you must have the MySQL client shared libraries on the client host. But you don't have to run the MySQL server in this case. On Linux, you may be able to install just the MySQL-shared RPM.

You can alternatively use Net::MySQL, which is a pure Perl implementation of the MySQL protocol:
