1. Oracle 7.3 for SCO under emulation is work well eith FreeBSD.
(You need enable in kernel sysv calls, very increase shared memory
and number of semaphores) Search "Oracle" in freebsd mail list
archives for detailed instructions, which was posted.
2. I have unfinished RPC bridge to Oracle, (which was working
for retrieve information only). I can publish this code.
3. We have CORBA CosQuery interface for ORACLE, wich would be aviable
in september. But it is planned to be commercical product.
4. thin JDBC driver for ORACLE is work under FreeBSD.
