The latest Oracle8i client is 8.1.7.4, released in May 2002 IIRC. All subsequent bug fixes go into the 9i tree. So I would recommend using the latest 9.2.0.4 client against your 8i server. Oracle client and server are compatible within one major release version. So that should be okay, as long as you don't use any 9i feature on your client.

HTH,
Dave
