Maybe someone else can correct me, but I don't see how this can be os neutral. In Unix, each sid runs as multiple seprarate processes while in windows each sid runs as a separate, multithreaded service. In unix, the 'repository' of installed sids is the oratab file, while in windows it is in the registry. Received on Mon Nov 13 2006 - 10:50:23 CST
