Re: Using Server Manager with MacX

Seems Oracle doesn't do much testing of Macintosh based stuff. I had a PowerPc with Soft Windows that the Oracle documentation CD would not run under and Oracle would take no responsibility either.

As far as MacX, as I remember, Apple passed that off to DEC. So I would keep bugging DEC about it. Also see if you can ORACLE to replicate the problem, they do have a Macintosh based group. It will take effort with either company.

Good luck,
