Re: BEQUETH protocol for local database?

You need to use beq protocol for PO8. You do not have to start any listener for that.

The problem you are having is most probably because you have SQL*NET 2.3.4.0.0 (or earlier) installed. This has a bug for Beq protocol.

So install SQL*NET 2.3.4.0.2 from the Oracle 8.0.4 CD along with the protocol adapters.

In future if you reinstall client products from CD, DO NOT install SQL*NET Everything should be fine. Let me know if it works.

Thanks
