Hello!
I have been trying to set up a local DB on my laptop so I can practice coding some SQL and testing D2K stuff away from the office. I have installed Oracle 9i D2K and 9i RDBMS on my laptop. I really need some help configuring the database so that I can "trick" the computer into thinking the server is on my local harddrive. I really am weak in networking skills and I wonder if anybody has set up this type of relationship before and if so, could you point me in the right direction? Even some documentation would be great. Thanks in advance!
Regards,
Steve

Yes, you've followed me appropriately. I will try to log in this evening and see if I can connect once I adjust the TNSNames file. I thought there was more configuration that would need to be done, but if I understand your response correctly, I should be ready to go?
Thank you for taking the time.
Regards,
Steve

I don't think it is needed in your case (Mahesh already answered) but in case you do need the server name, you can generally use "localhost" as a "server name" for your pc/laptop.
