I am at a client site who has modern databases of 11gR2 and 12c, but they are using Forms 6i, which surprisingly works with these database no problem.
They are looking to implement Network Data Encryption. When the server uses the parameter sqlnet.encryption_server=REQUIRED, they can use sqlnet.encryption_server=ACCEPTED with an 11g client to connect, but with the 8 client (and forms 6i) they get ORA-12660 Encryption or crypto-checksumming parameters incompatible.
Completely unsupported, but is there any way they can implement encryption so that they can continue to use forms 6i? Is there a way maybe to get forms 6i to use the 11g client?
I feel like I was knocked back into the stone age, but want to see if I can help them out a little instead of telling them they have to upgrade their forms to 11g or greater.
