bequeath connections are not supported on WinNT 4.0, W2K. bequeath connections are supported on w2k3.

you do not want to run Citrix Metaframe on the same server as Oracle. feel free to do so, though. you are best off to check the Product Certification matrix on metalink, to determine what version of Oracle is supported on what OS.

PC Anywhere, Timbuktu Pro, NetOp, WinVNC all support bequeath connections, so lsnrctl, svrmgrl, namesctl all work, as does sqlplus when not connecting thru a listener.

this has to be on an FAQ somewhere.

Citrix has its place, and its on a (pseudo) app server, with only the Oracle client installed.
