Thanks everybody.

I write to the group, after a large telephone call to the Oracle client area in my country (sorry about my bad translation into english). After that, I think that a single database user (logic user, created in the DB with CREATE USER), can has several simultaneus connections from diferents PCs to the DB. Therefore I only need a single user license. This is possible and common at all DB systems that I've worked with before. But, thinking at the word "user" ... I wondered .... ¿ what exactly it means for Oracle ? Pheraps, its licence politic limits the number of connections of a "database user", or a user is the number of PC connected concurrently to the server, .... ¿?

Thanks everybody. I'll try calling again, and I hope, I will be able to understand what Oracle tell me. Received on Wed Oct 23 2002 - 17:00:28 CDT
