Hi all:

I want to connect to Oracle 8 installed in an AIX Server (via SQL Plus or TOAD in RDBMS) via internet.
The problem is that there is a firewall installed in order to limit the access to the server.
In the Oracle Net 8 Easy Config says that the client connects to the port 1521.
When i work in LAN that's correct, but when I try to connect from 'outside' oracle tries to open other ports dinamically (i think in other to improve the bandwidth)
My question is if there's any parameter or way to say Oracle that it must open just one port or a well-known port when connecting from internet so we can configure the firewall coorrectly

thanks a lot Received on Mon May 10 1999 - 02:25:22 CDT
