Arif,

I have not tried this particular arragement (9.2 listener, 7.3.4 db) but,

The current Oracle 9i Release 2 (9.2.0.4) listener would be the recommended listener to use. If you do not want to install that version, please use the 8.1.7 listener with the 8.1.7.4.1 and 8.1.7.4.12 patchsets applied. (security issues). I do remember reading of some issues regarding a 9.2 client not connecting to a 7.3.4 database, so you'll want to test this configuration before putting it into production.

When you can migrate that database from 7.3.4 to 9.2, no changes will be required on the listener (as the migrated 9.2 database instance will register dynamically)

hth.

Has any of you come across installing Oracle 7.3.4.0 on Windows 2000. Can any of you share your experiences with me. I am aware that 7.3.4.0 is not certified by Oracle to run on Win 2000 however my requirements dictate I carry out the stated task. I tried to install and it did install OracleServiceOrcl and OracleStartORCL services however didn't install OracleTNSListener.

Any help is appreciated
Arif
