Arslan,
Two_task basically enables you to set up an identifier for a remote database
that you may want to connect to.
Usually you define the local database by setting the values of ORACLE_HOME
and ORACLE_SID, setting TWO_TASK = <tnsconnect string> allows you to
identify the remote database. When connecting instead of typing the command
below to connect to a local database
$ sqlplus user/pass
you can issue the setenv command to make the remote database your "local"
one if you follow that.
$ setenv TWO_TASK remote_db
$ sqlplus newuser/newpass
because you have set the TWO_TASK variable, it overrides the ORACLE_HOME and
ORACLE_SID settings and when you login with newuser/newpass, the remote
database is used as the local one.
Hope this helps,
Regards
