Re: Will Oracle 9i let me connect using jdbc right "out of the box"

Hi !

I agree wih Niall. I've tried, years ago (!), Oracle 7 PE and spent days before I find an article explaining that Personal Edition has a limited network stack.
So no easy JDBC.
I do not know if it has change with version 9.

But please, post errors you're getting. I will be easier to see what can go wrong.

HTH
Sébastien.
