Hi,

        We are planning to have the following network.

  1. Windows for workgroups 3.11 peer-to-peer LAn.
  2. Twisted pair Ethernet (10base T).
  3. Windows NT AS 3.1 for database
  4. Oracle 7 for windows NT
	In addition Oracle tools like Sql*forms need to be run from
	these windows for workgroups nodes (computers) accessing the
	oracle server on windows NT.

	Is it possible to make this configuration work and if so,
	what protocol adaptor/convertos (sql*net, etc) we need to buy ?

	I did confirm from Oracle that they have oracle 7 for windows NT.
	My understanding is that in a windows for workgroups peer-to-peer
	lan, one node talks to another using NetBEUI protocol.  What 
	protocol does such a node uses to talk to NT server ?
	If we have oracle on NT server, what do wee to get ? 
	SQL*NET TCP/IP ?  I am confused.

	I do not have prior experince of assembling a complete system 
	like this and don't want to screw up any thing.

	Any help would be grealty appreciated.
