What are the Entries in Tnsnames.ora say -did they point your service name to IPX otherwise make your service name use IPX instead of TCP. I hope this helps.

Hi,

 I have an enviroment with one Oracle Server version 8.1.6 on a NT Server (version 4.0 and SP 6a) using the protocol IPX, I configured the listener locally to connect via IPX and it worked fine, so I tried to connect to the Oracle via ODBC on other NT machine over the protocol IPX, but the machine does not connect to the database (I could map a directory from the NT machine, so the protocol is working fine). I tried to use the command tsnping but it doesnīt work, it stay "Attemptin to connect...", with no answer. I instaled SAP Agent and the Gateway Services for Netware, but nothing changed, Does anybody have experience with this installation and configuration just using IPX and NT (I donīt have any Novell server on my enviroment) ?

Regards,

Carlos Magno

Hi Steve,

Well, I guess then I was then totally wrong in thinking that the
"e-mails" that ensued after our initial discussion on the list
in 1998, did clarify it.  I remember your e-mails, asking me
about the "source" of my information (because you "thought" I
was wrong) about the master and process freelists, and the
overhead the access pattern it posed.  I did divulge the source
and had further discussions about it.

My thinking was that, once we had established the "source" of
the information and it's credibility, we had agreed on the
"facts of disagreement".  But, obviously we have not.

I think it is OK for us to disagree on this and anything else,
as we are two individuals with varying backgrounds and
experiences.  I have my "production experience", you have your
"lab tests", and I can definitely "agree to differ"...;-)

Peace & Goodwill,

Gaja
