Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> Interfacing Oracle7 on HP-UX to MS IIS on NT 4.0
I am working on a project that requires interfacing an Oracle 7.3 server,
running on an HP-UX host, to a MS Internet Information Server, running on an
NT 4.0 host. All servers are connected via a TCP/IP network. The objective
is to allow users to query the database from forms presented via ANY web
browser on ANY platform. I am planning on using PL/SQL or CGI scripts to
build the web pages dynamically.
I believe the key to successfully interfacing the two is Oracle's Web Server 1.0 product or its shareware predecessor WOW. But I cannot seem to locate either of these. Furthermore, Oracle supports neither; so they were of little help. Any leads to where these packages can be obtained?
Another possibility might be SQL*Net drivers for both hosts, since I believe this is the default protocol, and thus a required component, of the WebServer product. Is the SQL*Net driver in Personal Oracle7 for Windows95/NT compatible with IIS? Is this the same driver that is distributed in Oracle's WebServer 2 or 3 product? And will it talk to SQL*Net on the Unix host?
Another goose chase seems to be ODBC drivers for HP-UX. The theory behind this one is that IIS can parlez via ODBC to the Oracle7 server. Does anyone know if such a driver exists?
Any and all help will be greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance, Gig
