Does anyone know how to use DBI and establish a database connection without ODBC? My database and my programs are on separate servers and I don't know know how to do this:

$dbh = DBI->connect("dbi:ADO:dsn", $user, $passwd);

Our DBA says that we can do this with a DSNless connection and without using ODBC. I've always connected to a database on a separate server with ODBC.

Thanks!
