Re: Direct Vs. SQL*net

I already thought of your suggestion but know that it won't be foolproof; at least for my evironment.

I have a DBLINK that allows my developers to use the SQL*PLUS "COPY" to reference tables "on the local machine". In other words, I'd like a way to discern the difference between

SQL> connect username/password
SQL> connect username/password_at_PROD

when in the first case I'm logged onto the host where "PROD" resides and ORACLE_SID=PROD
