host name, SQLNET listener port(s), and the
service name or SID of the database.
Why not just use the sqlnet assistant to create
the tnsnames.ora file for you? It works pretty
well for the most part.
Then copy the file to a common network drive
so that all clients don't require individual
tnsnames.ora files. You don't want to go
down that road, as it makes changes very difficult.

The service name which has always been the database/instance name -- I
assume these don't necessarily have to be the same, but it appears to be
that way for single database applications.
I also have the host name which has always been the NetBIOS name of the
hosting W2K server.
So here is the question, is that all I need to configure the client if I
know I'm going to connect using TCP for a 9i client?
