When you tnsping the database does it tell you the parameter file its
using ?   I always get this in my output so I know what my path was set
to .   Also, check to see that you are not using something like ldap to
get the tns information.


Used parameter files:
/u03/home/oracle/product/10.2.0.4/network/admin/sqlnet.ora

What kind of client machine?  What's the value of NAMES.DIRECTORY_PATH
in sqlnet.ora?  Have you tried temporarily removing renaming your new
tnsnames.ora to see what happens on tnsping?

Okay,  I'm stumped.  I wiped oracle off a client machine and reinstalled
the 10g client.  I copied over a fresh copy of a tnsnames.ora file that
has all our client services with their new IP's.
However, when I tnsping one of the services, I am getting IP address
that were in the OLD tnsnames file.  I did a file search on the machine
and found no additional copies (other than the sample directory) of the
tnsnames.ora file.

Where would it be getting the OLD service information from?  I searched
the registry and did not find it.  The Tnsping file shows that it is
going to the correct sql home.

Thanks
Bob
