Hi!

I sympathize with your predicament...I would suggest upgrading the V6 database...there were significant data dictionary table and functionality changes to both V7 and V7.1 upgrade which could be contributing to your problem...I was in the same boat. Are you getting any specific error messages that would give us a clue as to exactly what problem the database is having with your current DBLINKs?
