A question for people who also know Sybase

Hi,

Oracle 8.1.7.2 and Sybase 12.0 client on Solaris 2.8

We are trying to access 7 remote Sybase databases (all on NT) using a Sybase client (Adaptive Server Enterprise 12.0) installed on Solaris.

Have converted the IP addresses and the port numbers to Hexadecimal and have made the necessary changes to the 'interfaces' file on our Unix box.

We are able to successfully connect to 5 databases and retrieve data using isql. But we get the following error for the remaining 2 sites when I issue the isql command:

CT-LIBRARY error:
ct_connect(): network packet layer: internal net library error: Net-Lib protocol driver call to connect two endpoints failed

We are able to ping these 2 servers and also do the 'traceroute' successfully.

Also, I am able to connect to these 2 locations using the Sybase client on my workstation. This verifies that the IP address, port#, user-id and password are correct.

Just the connection through Unix fails and have to make this work so that our Oracle database can talk to Sybase using the Oracle Gateway. Oracle Gateway is able to retrieve data from the remaining 5 Sybase servers.

TIA! Prakash
