where does an oracle installation keep its server name?

It looks like a secret to me. Where does oracle client install store
the server name?



I use the string "foo.mycompany.com" to connect to my oracle instal
using sqlplus.



However, I cannot find foo.mycompany.com in any of the .ora files in
the network directory of my client installation! [which includes
tnsnames.ora, sqlnet.ora, etc.]



FYI, I am using 8.1.7. sqlplus client install downloaded from oracle
site.



TIA,



Praty
