Does anyone know of a resource or web site that explains the process of logging into an Oracle database. By this, I mean, say that I go into sql*plus, type in my name, pwd and SID. What I am curious about is what is the order of .ora files(TNSNAMES,SQLNET, or other files) that it reads in order to log me into the database. I have been using Oracle for a few months and really want to understand this process much better.

Thanks,

Dave
