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.
