Re: No connect to DB after installing SP5!?!

I may be wrong, but, as I recall, SP5 closes a nasty bug in NT where a process could grab memory it doesn't own.

As I further recall, some older versions of Oracle had a bug that they were indeed accessing memory they didn't own, thus, SP5 breaks them.
