Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.tools -> Re: tnsnames.ora, sqlnet.ora, listner.ora
I'll try
tnsnames.ora - configures database aliases for the client machine listener.ora - configures the listener which is a process which listes for incoming connection requests for databases sqlnet.ora - configures the sqlnet client on the machine
I know that these are all oneliners and therefore woefully short. i can do no better than to point you at the sql*net/net8 documentation that comes with oracle.
