That, unfortunately, is the nature of the beast. Oracle has not updated
all the "pieces" and so you are faced with some 8.0.6 and some 8.1.7
code. It all works together - mostly - but you will face some
administrative problems - like Net8 not being able to always resolve
your service name, forcing you to copy a common tnsnames.ora to
everywhere (let me know if you encounter this problem and I'll explain
further). You will execute the SQL+ that is in your default oracle home.
