Hi,
You should take the following steps, to connect your NT-workstation to the
Oracle Server.
- Install SQL Net V2 on your UNIX-server
- load and link the software
- create a file LISTENER.ORA in the directory $TNS_ADMIN
examples are in this directory
- Install the SQL Net client software on your NT-workstation
(software resides on the Oracle 7.3.2 Client for Windows CD)
- create a file TNSNAMES.ORA in the directory C:\ORANT\NETWORK\ADMIN
(or in the directory where the registry key TNS_ADMIN to points
- In the file TNSNAMES.ORA you place an entry <database>.WORLD, giving
the parameters for
the name of the UNIX-server (or IP-adress) and the IP - port.
- check if the server is responding via: TNSPING <database>
- Install the ODBC-software on your workstation.
Connect your server via <username>, <password>, <database>
Hope this will give you an idea.
gr,
Guus
