VSL.INI is a file used with a development system called JSB's Virtual
Socket Library. This library was used by Oracle in developing SQL*Net. I
believe that Oracle actually admits this somewhere in their docs. For more
information, check JSB's web site. (I believe that you can download the
library itself.) The address is, www.jsb.com (I think. if not do a search
for JSB and virtual socket library) If you need more info, let me know, I
ll be glad to help.
BTW, please let me know what you learn with respect to the installation of SQL*Net on a LAN. I am trying to do so at the moment. Some of Oracle's docs refer to a 'Oracle Client Software Manager' that will allow you to do this, but I dont have it right now.
best of luck,
