The libraries need to be accessible locally.
Either copy them accross to the other machine, or mount the
first machines Sybase directory on the other machine using
NFS (or something similar).

Yes, it is possible.
The ramifications are that you must tell perl where to look for the
libraries using the -I or the "use lib" statements, as in
#!/usr/local/bin/perl
use lib "/home/mpeppler/sybperl/lib";
However, you may need to add multiple 'use lib' statements as
perl usually install perl code in one directory and
shared objects (architecture dependant binaries) in an other
directory.
