Remote Oracle Access

Hi,

I have a situation where I need to have online transactions and batch uploads/downloads from a front-end UNIX workstation to a remote Oracle7 database server (UNIX machine), which are connected via leased lines (TCP/IP over X.25). The front-end workstation receives on-line transaction data from a number of PC Point-of-Sales systems, and in-turn updates the remote backend database with the transaction data.

Would appreciate very much if anyone could provide some suggestions as to how I could configure the system in terms of software (SQL*Net, CDE tools, C programs,UNIX or other utilities?) on both the front-end workstation and the backend host machine. I'm particularly concerned about feasibility in terms of response/turnaround time and ease of implementation. If you have experiences in implementing or using systems with similar requirements, could you also share your experience?

Thanks a million!
