I don't think we ever got 2.0 working here. We went straight from 1.1.7 to 2.1. We had some problems with 2.1 on our WIN95 clients. It did work, but it took 15-20 seconds to establish an initial connection to the database. Apparently, there are problems between earlier 2.x versions of SQL*Net and the WIN95 TCP/IP stack. Version 2.2 of SQL*Net fixed those problems. We have been using 2.2 on our WIN95 clients for several weeks now and we are very happy with the performance.
