Alex,

    This is one of those questions that gets a "depends" answer.

    1) If you've specified a username to use on the remote server in the create
database link command then that's the account that starts a session.
    2) If your using Oracle Names with it's db_link capability (namely you don't
have them defined in the database) then the user specified there runs the
session.

    3) Your user account, with the same password, on the remote server runs the
session.

If I query table in the remote database using database link does user in the
remote database which is referenced in the database link  create session in
the remote database and if not could somebody explain how remote query is
executed.

P.S. I know that I could try it myself but I am layzy (sp?) and tired
(fighting with Ross for access to printing presses :-) )
