Q: how in hell could i name the links?

Hi,

What is rules to name dblinks. Sometimes there is your choice, but sometimes not. What does it mean : "ORA-02085: database link CDRF_LINK.WORLD connects to NT_KONTS.WORLD" (BTW, real message, and "konts" there has nothing common with possible English associations, somebody hadn' t the right dictionary in right moment, that's all, sorry). Well, please, without RTFM, i've already. Sorry, there's nothing plain there (except advice to use Network Manager - BTW, i have already some time ago, and outcome never works without manual corrections). From one side seems you could name link as you need and it works fine, from another - you could run into msg above in less desired moment. As this is. See, it's from DESIGNER/2000 and the name of the link seems hard coded, but it's reverse engineering, and there may be different databases as source ... I don't believe i should change database names every time i need to make a link. Could some guru explain where i'm wrong? What's about environment, it's Oracle 7.3.3 Enterprise under Solaris 2.6 and Oracle 7.3.2 under NT4.
Any suggestions?

TIA,
