Has anyone been successful with putting the SQLNET.ora file in the same
shared location as the TNSNAMES.ora file?  I know it's supposed to be used
solely on the user workstation in /network/admin (Net80/admin), but some
people are trying to place it on the shared drive as well.

We're actually implementing ONAMES, so we're replacing the SQLNET.ora file
to specify ONAMES, and some Regions are thinking they only need to place
this on the shared drive where TNS_ADMIN points to.  I don't think this is
supported or works in all situations.  Any experiences or comments??

We use a shared tnsnames.ora from a NT server.
