I usually just setup a TCP/IP connection, and use that. You can also do an IPC connection, which might make more sense if you are running everything one one machine. Here's the tnsnames.ora entries that I use:
HERMAN-IPC.GENNICK.ORG =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = HERMAN))
)
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = HERMAN.GENNICK.ORG)
)
)
HERMAN.GENNICK.ORG =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = jonathan.gennick.org)(PORT = 1521)) ) (CONNECT_DATA = (SERVICE_NAME = herman.gennick.org) )
)
Both IPC and TCP/IP require that a Net8 Listener be running. I recently spent quite a bit of time trying to get a Bequeath connection working with 8i--Bequeath does not require a listener, only to find out that 8i release 8.1.5 on NT does not support Bequeath. See the bottom of page 7 in the Release Notes.
