Is it a virtual TCP/IP network setup between your client/server ? Can you Ping the server using TCP/IP from your client ? Can you Ping the Oracle server using the OraPing from your client ? Can you fix the problem if the oracle drivers are in local ? Are you sure the Oracle SQL*Net support your TCP/IP vendor ? Received on Wed Apr 30 1997 - 00:00:00 CDT
