I just talked with our local rep about this. He says that it should work fine, but you may have to do a reinstall and specify winsock for the transport interface. This loads some DLLs that SQL*Net needs for the winsock interface.

I'm going to be trying this myself next week, hopefully, and I'd appreciate any feedback you'd be willing to give me on what winds up working for you.
