Vikas,
I just implemented Oracle Names (8.1.6) for Verizon
Wireless...corporate-wide. I've setup three ONAMES servers:
1. At Corporate Headquarters in NJ. This server contains the region
database for ONAMES. It also serves as the "Secondary" ONAMES server
corporate-wide.
2. In data center

Hi Ed,
Why do you say that OiD "is not cheap"? I haven't seen any associated
costs, other than servers to put it on. Can you explain?
The "complicated" part, though I definitely agree with! :)
Thx!

OiD is a "separately licensable product"...not included as part of the DB
license. If I remember correctly, you have the UPU license calculation or a
per entry license @ $50/, with 5000 entries being the minimum!!

Hi,
Actually, it's not so bad.
OiD is licensed separately ONLY when used as general purpose directory
service.
Check Metalink Note:135696.1
"13. Do I need to license OID when deploying the directory for NET8 ?
Answer
--
No, deploying OID for NET8 is free of charge."

Interesting...Oracle must have changed their minds on this issue. I know we
complained that it seemed crazy for us to pay for OiD when ONAMES is
free...considering Oracle is de-supporting ONAMES and practically forcing
customers to go with OiD (LDAP). I guess they actually used some of the
feedb
Sorry about asking these question , because currently I'm not in my office
so I don't have the document ,Why we need to use Oracles Names /LDAP ??

Vikas,
I just implemented Oracle Names
The most simple analogy is would you prefer to manually
maintain a "host" file on each client or use a single facility
such as a DNS server ot provide the mapping between
hostname & IP_number?
At some point switching from using TNSNAMES.ORA files
on all Oracle servers & client to a single/central
