Yes. Install access under win95 and the ODBC client driver supplied with the server
or download it from technet.oracle.com. Dont install the ODBC driver since it
isn't neccessary in this case

The NT does not need anything added to it. Think of ODBC as a gateway installed on the client to access the server. ODBC will need sqlnet installed
on the client since it ultimately makes call to the sqlnet layer to contact the server.
