using Apache::DBI for regular perl scripts?

Hello,

Is there anything that would keep me from instituting the connection  
maintenance of Apache::DBI into a daemonized perl script?  Does it  
have any need to be running from within mod_perl specifically?

If not, is it just as easy as doing a 'use Apache::DBI' before 'use  
DBI'?

thanks!

Don't do that.  Use DBI->connect_cached instead.
