Started with Filemon. One strange difference is that on the working computer, when I try to make the connection I see that \orant\NET80\NLTUS.MSB is being accessed. On the bad computer, I see \orant\NET80\TNSUS.MSB as well as \orant\RDBMS\ORAUS.MSB being read in addition to NLTUS.MSB. Received on Mon Nov 06 2006 - 16:31:49 CST
