We downloaded it and did manage to get it running on Windoze as well as Linux. It is not bad, except that your names are restricted to the first . in the name. In our case CORE.PROD.MMS.US got tied up with CORE.TEST.MMS.US. Type either into tnsping and you got the first one that answered. You have to change them to CORE_PROD_MMS_US. Phooey!

After much experimenting w/ OID, I discovered a much simpler solution, called tnsManager.

I looked at that a few months ago.
Now I can't recall if I got it to work or not.
The problem I see with that is the inevitable issues with any TNS name resolution errors, and working with support.
