  • I assume you've checked in the ODBC Data Source Administrator that you've not turned logging on there.
  • Are you certain that no one has turned on SQL*Net logging? It definitely isn't turned on by default.
  • To turn off SQL*Net tracing, open the file sqlnet.ora in your %ORACLE_HOME%\network\admin directory and make sure you have the line TRACE_LEVEL_CLIENT = OFF
