Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Connection question?
Alright Paul,
Not too sure myself (as I said in my post). I know on VMS the bequeath listener is a job started using the BEQLSNR utility. After a bit of digging on Metalink, I found Note: 62142.1 that illustrates the bequeath connection quite well. Looks like it's a direct one-home one-server connection, where the app spawns it's own server-side process to connect to a db in the same oracle home. This connection is performed using Unix pipes. The listener spawns the server-side process for IPC connections, and these communicate using Unix Domain Sockets. Amazing what you can learn with a little digging.. ;-)
Thanks,

Harry, you say that IPC and BEQ both use the listener to spawn a server-side process -- but the docs say that BEQ "...enables clients that exist on the same machine as the server to retrieve information from the database without using the listener".
Which is correct?
