Can't enable com_dotnet & COM - Ubuntu 9.04 with PHP 5.2

Developers Installing PHP / Apache / IIS / Environment

Hi,
I can’t find a way to enable / install com_dotnet on an Ubuntu server with apache2 + PHP 5.2
In scriptcase, when I try to create a connection to an Access .mdb database, I get the following error;
“The PHP extension com_dotnet must be enabled to access this database.”

I tried to comment out the following line in my php.ini;

com.allow_dcom = true

but it didn’t help either.

Any help will be greatly appreciated…
Thanks

Cemo

ps: I don’t want to use the ODBC option, because I’m planning to use COM for other purposes as well (not just connecting to an access .mdb)

As I said, my main purpose is not connecting to an access db.
Mostly, I want to use external COM applications for cross-platform usage.
