I have installed Oracle 8i on Linux; the database proper works fine, including a normal Net8 configuration.

How do I configure Net8 to be able to use EJB and CORBA as implemented in 8i?

Also, connecting using sqlplus with a @databasename specifier works using tnsnames.ora as

GEMI =
  (DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =

      (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = scriabin)(PORT = 1521))     )
(CONNECT_DATA =

      (SID = gemi)
    )
  )

but not with

GEMI =
  (DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =

      (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = scriabin)(PORT = 1521))     )
(CONNECT_DATA =

      (SERVICE_NAME = gemi)
    )
  )

Net8 is a part of Oracle that is very confusing to me. I don't really understand what pertains to listener and what to tnsnames.ora.
