Look into the documentation for the PROTOCOL.ORA file and specifically the 'tcp.validnode_checking' and 'tcp.invited_nodes' parameters.

In my (oldish) version of the docs, this is in 'Undetsranding SQL*Net', in the 'Contents of the Configuration Files' section. Received on Thu Mar 11 1999 - 03:52:54 CST
