Hi,
The fact that I can find very little information on this may indicate that I am looking at things from the wrong perspective. I am not an Oracle specialist so please bear with me!

Here is the scenario: We have a connection on a Windows 2003 box to a remote Oracle 8i database that we access through an ISDN line. This was set up by a supplier. We now have a need to pool the ISDN line using a M$ ISA Server. For web connections I have no problem - simply change the network connection properties to use the ISA server as a proxy server. However, the Oracle connection ignores this.

How do I set up the Oracle connection to use a proxy server? I'm completely stuck so any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
