Hello,

[Quoted] Here is the config:

  • 1 web server inside a dmz, oracle client installed
  • 1 oracle server on the lan

What is working:
If i put the webserver on the lan, i can reach the oracle server with the net8 assistant correctly.

What is not working:
If the webserver is in the dmz i received a timeout (tns-12535 error)and the connexion test is unsuccessful...

What i tried:
- only 1521 open => does not work

  • all ports open between the 2 machines => does not work

Is there a common solution to this problem ? It seems that lots of people have the same when i search through the forums but i found no answers... Received on Fri Mar 19 2004 - 16:28:49 CET
