What platforms are you talking about?
This is pretty well documented on the oracle side ... you can control for each entry in tnsnames which directories/libraries contain your external procedures related to that instance. You can allow ANY or just specific ones ... the typical advice applies here read the manuals.
Relevant doc is in the net configuration and net services manuals plus metalink has some pretty in depth docs if you have support access.
If you have a specific thing you have tested and tried but doesn't seem to be working correctly for you ... give us some specific details please. Received on Tue Jul 14 2009 - 18:36:05 CDT
