Hi I believe it would be Best Practice to have the same Oracle client on all your Direct connect XP servers.(with a Oracle Datastore) Can anyone advise where I can find supporting documentation on this? Also... Does anyone have experience with different version of Oracle clients on the XP Servers. What kind of problems(if any) do you have? I am very interested in knowing the kind of problems I could expect. Sometimes Best Practice isn't always enough to encourage Management to do the right thing. I need to show them the other side of the picture. Thanks in advance Cherie Watts ******************************************************** This weeks sponsor Emergent Online Thinssentials Utilities Using the latest software, hardware, networking technologies, proven technical expertise, proprietary software and best practices, EOL provides custom-tailored solutions for each client?s mission and specific goals. http://www.go-eol.com ********************************************************** Useful Thin Client Computing Links are available at: http://thin.net/links.cfm *********************************************************** For Archives, to Unsubscribe, Subscribe or set Digest or Vacation mode use the below link: http://thin.net/citrixlist.cfm
