Bill,

With Onames you don't need the TNSnames.ora file anymore. It does resolution of database service names automatically no matter if it's a database or client doing the lookup. Now previous versions of ONames did a very nice job of allowing you to create global database links, but version 8.1 messed that up REAL bad.

Has anyone had success gettin db links to resolve service names using Oracle Names? seem to recall reading something that required the local TNS entry for db links to successfully resolve, but also read that Names automatically creates a global db link for every service name registered with it.
