Some... probaly MOST of it works... but I'm not sure about ALL. I installed Oracle 8i (8.1.6), Oracle Enterprise Manager, and Web DB on Windows 2000 and everything seemed to work. (However, I was just testing/learning on a 2-computer home network with a tiny database, so I didn't give it much of a workout.)

But when I installed Oracle Application Server 4.0.8.2 on the same computer, not only would OAS not work (http listeners wouldn't start) but the OEM Management Server wouldn't start either.

I'm not sure if this is a problem with Windows 2000 compatibility or if I don't have something configured correctly.
