Adar, & Everyone:

It's all well and good to have the view that the Oracle products work, and you
can just install them and it will work.  However, I have management who says
(in effect) "Thou shalt have but one directory, and it shall be Active".

So I'm in the same boat as these other folks who are required or constrained
by company policy and management to a single infrastructure.  If we cannot
work with that then we don't do it.  Then, of course, they tell us to move
towards Single-Sign-on.

The upshot of this is that I too am listening for another member of this list
who has done this, or has tried and failed and here's what tripped them up,
any sort of war story that could help me out.

I cannot believe that there are only three of us who have (or have had) this
problem.

Anybody?

Cheers,
Mike

AFAIK, you do not need to buy anything new.
You install the OID, put the repository into a new, or existing, DB, 
configure the client and away you go.
I tested it sometimes ago and it worked OK.
