Update to my earlier question, I managed to get Personal Oracle Lite on 95 to talk to the db on Linux in SQLPlus 3.3. It seems to take at least 60 seconds to establish the connection and for the SQL prompt to appear.  When I telnet or ftp into the linux box I get an instant respons so is there a listener delay or some other sort of timing issue I need to be aware of?

PS I would still like to get the Oracle8 binaries for Win 95 client if anyone knows where a 'working' version may be found.
