Re: Oracle on Linux or 2000?

There are some issues with Oracle and Windows Terminal Server on W2K. I found I was unable to use any client tools to connect to the "local" database on the machine I was supposedly logged into, got a TNS protocol error. Some of this is documented in the 8.1.7 NT/2000 release notes.
