DBD::Oracle "make test" failure (Was: DBD::Oracle build failure)

Okay,
So, I took the initiative to build the DBD on one of my VMs. It's a Win2K Pro system, with Perl 5.8.0 and MSVC 6.0 SP5 with no SDK install. I don't know if it was the SDK or the XP that messed with the build, and mayhap I'll never know, but I thinks it's built now, so let's leave good enough alone, right? Sure...

I've done the "perl Makefile.pl", and it completed successfully, along with "nmake". I've got a bit of an error during "nmake test" though, in that none of the tests which depend on an active connection come back with a success message. I do have ORACLE_SID, ORACLE_HOME and ORACLE_USER set, all with correct and valid parameters. What can I do te get all the tests to pass? (I think I got this last time I built it but installed anyway, and the DBD does work, but I'd like to get it to pass the tests...)

Thank you,
amonotod
