	We have currently Oracle v6 database on one workstation and
	many other workstations which access that databases via SQL*Net.
	We are planning to replace the server workstation with
	Digital's Alpha 3000-500 workstation. The problem is that
	only Oracle v7 is available for OSF/1 and we still have 
	those clients which keep using Oracle v6 (we cannot upgrade
	to Oracle v7 on all clients, becouse our customers have
	a lot of Oracle v6 databases).

	Does anyone know if it is possible for a Oracle v6 client
	to access Oracle v7 database via SQL*Net. Any information
	about such configuration, possible problems and requirements
	would be appreciated very much.
