Re: SuSE Linux 7.2 /etc/services and Oracle 9i - Help!

Hi all,

As a follow-up, I changed /etc/services FROM:
# sql*net 66/tcp # Oracle SQL*NET
# sql*net 66/udp # Oracle SQL*NET

TO:

sql*net          1521/tcp               # Oracle SQL*NET
sql*net          1521/udp               # Oracle SQL*NET

just to see if this might fix things...it does partially, some of the other instances are still unavailable and cannot connect.

I can now connect to the data base I installed when Oracle was installed and got OEM working locally on the Linux box, but haven't tried remote connection. I did __not__ restart networking so it appears that these are hit at runtime not necessarily at boot-time, without having to restart inetd or other networking. Very strange that SuSE is "certified" and yet they screw up the fundamental part, NETWORKING! on install.

I will still be hunting and hoping for docs on what /etc/services SHOULD contain for all the Oracle entries. Your help as always is greatly appreciated!
