Hi..

I was wondering about the following:

Is it possible in SQL*NEt v2.1 to RESTRICT access to a database on node Z from users of a particular host (say node A) only and allow access to users from other hosts (nodes B,C,D).

Note: It is possible for users from node A to connect to the database on node Z using the connect description. I need to restrict the users from node A even though the have the connect description and username/ password.

Tried out the protocol.ora
(tcp.validate_node=yes,
 tcp.excluded_hosts=(host1,host2...).

But it still allowed access to all the clients who had a valid tnsnames.ora connect descriptor!  

Help...
