#Default: ADDRS in preferred_servers
#
# Determines how many connections an ONames client may have open at one

#names.message_pool_start_size = 10
#
#Syntax: 3-256
#Default: 10

#Syntax: ADDR
#Default: (ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=IPC)(KEY=ONAMES))
#
# Address on which the client cache listens (is available to clients).
# Any valid TNS address is allowed. The default should be used if at

# be set to include the client-cache address first.
#

#Default: 259200
#
# This is the amount of time (in seconds) the server will cache the
addresses
# of servers listed in server-list file (sdns.ora). When this time expires
the

#
#names.max_open_connections = 10
#
#Syntax: 3-64
#Default: 10
#
# Specifies the number of connections that the Names Server can have open at
any
# given time. The value is generated as the value 10 or the sum of one
# connection for listening, five for clients, plus one for each foreign
domain
# defined in the local administrative region, whichever is greater. Any
# operation which requires the server to open a network connection will use
# an already open connection if it is available, or will open a connection
# if not. Higher settings will save time and cost network resources; lower
# settings save network resources, cost time.
#
#
#names.max_reforwards = 2

#
#Syntax: encrypted string
#Default: NULL
#
# If set the server will require that the user provide a password in his

#sqlnet.crypto_checksum_server
#sqlnet.encryption_client

# crypto-checksumming or encryption) should be active:
#
# Each of the above parameters defaults to ACCEPTED.
#
# Each of the above parameters can have one of four possible values:
#
# value meaning
#
# ACCEPTED The service will be active if the other side of the
# connection specifies "REQUESTED" or REQUIRED" and
# there is a compatible algorithm available on the other

# "ACCEPTED", "REQUESTED", or "REQUIRED" and there is a
# compatible algorithm available on the other side; it
# will be inactive otherwise.
#
# REQUIRED The service must be active, and the connection will

# to fake their identity.
#
#
#ssl_client_authentication
#
# Syntax: TRUE/FALSE
# Default: TRUE
#
# The ssl_client_authentication parameter controls whether the client
# is authenticated using SSL. This parameter should be set to FALSE if

# an SSL connection in order of priority. The cipher suites selected for
# a server must be compatible with those required by the client.
#
#ssl_version
#
# Syntax: 0/2.0/3.0
# Default: 0 (impiles 3.0)
#
# The ssl_version parameter defines the version of SSL that must
