Hi, List:
We have two oracle server running at different boxes with different ip addresses (all same, the version is 8.1.7). For 8.1.5 clients, they can connect both servers without any problem. However, For 8.1.7 clients, clients can only connect to one of server, even you copy the correct entry and then modify the ipaddress pointing to another one. Still has problem.
The error message is:
==========================================================C:\bea\wlserver6.0\config\beapoc>sqlplus username/password_at_test_connect_string
SQL*Plus: Release 8.1.7.0.0 - Production on Mon Jun 11 11:19:24 2001

===========================================================tnsname.ora should be fine. But I attached here
bad_one = (DESCRIPTION = (ADDRESS_LIST = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 222.115.155.69)(PORT = 1521)) ) (CONNECT_DATA = (SERVICE_NAME = oracle) ) )
good_one = (DESCRIPTION = (ADDRESS_LIST = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 222.115.155.119)(PORT = 1521)) ) (CONNECT_DATA = (SERVICE_NAME = oracle) ) )
both servers have same database name (global, instance, database --> oracle). The only difference is ipaddress....
Thanks for you advice
