Hi!

I am supposed to set up Oracle names server for our office. How exactly do I go about that?

set up Oracle Names server on a server (that also has a database running on it)
modify sqlnet.ora of all client workstations to point to names server Delete tnsnames.ora file from clients.
put the tnsnames.ora file that has all the aliases in it on the names server box
done

What I'm not perfectly sure about: all clients will connect to the Oracle names server (according to their sqlnet.ora file). Does the Oracle names server then use its local tnsnames.ora file to resolve all the aliases?
