Do you know which database(s) you have available on your Linux system? In general, the process is the same: find the appropriate database driver, add it to your classpath, and then connect to the database using JDBC.
I've moved this to the JDBC forum, where it will get more appropriate attention.

The configuration should be the same except for the machine name in the jdbc URL. There have been lots of examples in this forum. A search for "oracle" should bring up plenty
