Oracle 8.1.7 on W2K

I want to setup an service that depends on my Oracle instance starting successfully.

I have setup the windows registry to indicate to wait until Oracle successfully starts. But it appears Oracle tells windows that it has successfully started too SOON.

My application cannot connect, when windows starts it. I can start it a bit later successfully.

This is obviously a bug in Oracle, since other services work correctly.

Does anyone know a work around for this?

I have tried setting dependencies on these services (in desperation): OracleOraHome81TNSListener,OracleServiceFFS42GA,OracleOraHome81Agent

Where OracleServiceFFS42GA is my actual instance.

Thanks,
