Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> Re: Using Database Assistant from Client
if u have used Oracle Database Assistant on client workstation to connect to
local databases, u can use the service name in additon to the username/passwd
to connect to remote databases qualified by the service name. Ex:
username/passwd_at_servicename. First try & connect to the remote database thru
SQL*Plus using the service name, then use the Oracle Database Assistant. I
think it should work.
Kishoo.
