David, thanks for the feedback. The problem that I see is that Grid Control has not been released for the Windows platform which I believe precludes the functionality to monitor remote instances. Without grid control I think you can only run OEM on the machine that is running the database, I cannot seem to figure out how to register targets and I think this has to do with the fact that Grid control is not present?  Have you or any of your colleague tried to set up 10G on Windows to monitor several remote sources? I am just tryinjg to get my head around this completely new architecture and desing. One cool thing with 10G oem is that it no longer uses Apache, it is all servlets run from OC4J! I like it. Anyhoo, if you have any ideas I would greatly appreciate to hear them, if not I will post when I figure it all out.  I have an iTar open asking these very questions.
