Hi  all,

I would like to connect to Oracle  8  databases from other  Unix servers. I
can connect with  'sqlplus username/password@aliasstring' command if the
Oracle is installed on these servers.

How is Oracle Client for Unix work? Does it require Oracle server
installation before?

Thanks  in advance for  any advise.

H.V
