Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> Re: Bequeth Listnener
YOu are right about BEQ not needing a listener. That is effectively how
you create a database (or install oracle and create a database) without
having a listener up and running yet. The following is a quote from the
"Oracle8i Administrator's Reference Release 8.1.5 for Intel Linux":
...
An important feature of the BEQ protocol is that no network listener is required for its operation, since the protocol is linked into the client tools and directly starts its own server process with no outside interaction. However, the BEQ protocol can only be used when the client program and Oracle8i reside on the same machine. The BEQ protocol is always installed and always linked to all client tools and to the Oracle8i Server.
