I'll try again. What services are needed for a minimal but functioning Oracle installation?

Now, read the original post that started this thread:

"I installed Oracle10g Enterprise on Windows 2000, but after the first reboot, Oracle was up and running, which is not what I want. I want to be able to start it when I need it, and terminate it afterwards, to save boot time and system resources."

And where in that lot is JDBC mentioned? Nowhere. But the guy explicitly wants to minimise resources.

The Listener is not a requirement for *Oracle*, in other words. It is obviously required for all sorts of connectivity issues, JDBC being but one of them. But that, at this stage and on the basis of the posts in front of us, is not of relevance.

If you want to talk about something I'm not talking about, that's fine. But I stand by what I wrote, and I think it more appropriate to what was actually asked, too.
