Okay - sorry for being cranky. Anyway - the problem is this - we have circular links - a public synonym on both 8i and 10g pointing to each other through reverse database links. Now, I just got on this project and I did not set it up. However, a post on the internet from "Neil Jarvis" indicates that in this situation, once the synonym is used through the link, it will just hang every other DDL/DML statement related to the public synonym and not return with an error or anything. This is what we are seeing and he provides a solution which I am going to try.
See link "Bugs, Quirks and Features" on the following link (it is a
word document).
