I have two Oracle 8.1.6 database on different servers. I created a link on server 'A'
called 'instance_link' whish point to the Instance 'B' on server 'B'. It works fine. I
then created a link on server 'B' called 'instance_link' that point to Instance 'A' on
server 'A'. When I tried the link I get an ORA-02085 which says the link name must
be the same as the instance name.  

Any ideas why they do not work the same?  

Thanks!
