I am trying to connect SQL*Net V2 request from an rs6000 through a sun
firewall to an SGI web server. The port defined is 1521 which passes
through the firewall and is passed to the web server through port 1521.
The problem is the return trip is sending through a random port in the
6000 range. Is there any way to define which port it will actually be
sent through. The gateway is defined to allow only the rs6000 server to
the SGI server to communicate through port 1521. We can not allow a
random port as we need to limit our exposure into our database.
Any Ideas?
