I have an Oracle 8i database running on a Sun box. I can currently and always could get in using SQL*PLUS. We have a third part app that connects behind the scenes to the database and allows clients to work with the software thru Windows. All of a sudden yesterday they could no longer connect. At the end of this message I have the output of the sqlnet.log file. Not sure if it's relevant, Any idea what's going on? The only difference between now and before is I needed most of the drive space for a temporary backup, but there is still a few megs free and the space left is not going down any. Thanks.
