I am looking for info on how you support a large number of PCs (200+) and keep each ones tnsnames.ora file in sync. It seems that most people do not touch them. Some try to modify them and when new databases are created, the tnsnames.ora files must be changes as well. It seems to be that a shared tnsnames.ora file on a network drive may work. I remember a thread awhile back about the order of resolution (home directory, then OH/network/admin ....). Again, I am asking about people using the Oracle client to connect to 15+ databases (v7.3.4 - 9.0.x) on 10+ different servers. I have just started to think about this and posted here before I started my MetaLink search.
TIA for any info.
