IPC and Bequeath are two *different* protocols. If you have AUTOMATIC_IPC you will use the IPC protocol, not the Bequeath protocol. You need to explicitly define the Bequeath protocol. However, I don't see why you prefer to use Bequeath instead of IPC Please refer to v$session_connect_info to see what protocol your programs are actually using.
