Our secondary ONAMES server used to be 8.1.7 on WinTuke, SP3 with the primary ONAMES being 8.0.5.0.1 under OpenVMS and the common repository Names DB 8.1.7. At the time, the secondary ONAMES server was my PC (one of those "quick-and-dirty" ideas that became production). I was also trying to get OEM 8.1.7 in the same ORACLE_HOME working properly with an intermittent lack of notification e-mail. I had decided to rebuild my Windohs install from scratch and "upgrade" to Oracle9iR2 as part of that. The secondary 9.2.0 ONAMES ran OK against the original 8.1.7 repository (minimum version required for ONAMES in 9i) and the original primary 8.0.5 ONAMES server without much of any issue until we migrated everything to Linux servers.
Short story long, yes, we have had 8.1.7 ONAMES run OK on WinTuke.
