I'm running mysql on a linux server and have just recently started messing with ActivePerl on my Win95 box. I started to install the mysql dbd and realized I'd have to actually have a mysql server running on the machine in order to get through the traditional perl Makefile.PL, nmake...process.

What I want to do is make a client, using Perl/tk that can connect to my linux server. Do I need dbd on my Win95 box or is there a generic driver I can use? If I need the mysql dbd, is there a way to install it in ActivePerl without having to have a local server?

Thanks,
