I've been looking at a very similar problem on a BSD/OS system.  The
problem is, most of the DBD::xxx interfaces are really presupposing
that you have some database client.  Someone dropped me a note that the
very latest DBI might have a "remote" DBD interface, or something like
that, that would do this - and I plan to look into it Any Day Now.
Of course, I don't have an ODBC database or an NT server, so it's a
bit hard.  ;)
