SHARED SQLNET.ora? RE: tnsnames.ora in clients
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??
