One way is to use Oracle names servers.  For some reason, I have never liked
this.  No particular reason.

Another way is to use push software, like Tivoli, to push a tnsnames.ora out
to client PC's.

If you have fewer PC's to fiddle with -- for example, a department -- and if
you have NT admins with enough knowledge to set it up, you can e-mail a link
to the users for them to click on to update their tnsnames.ora

I've seen all of these methods used.  The one I thought worked the best was
the push method.
