Question:  Has anyone tried running 4D as a front end to Oracle, with
the Oracle server running on a Unix machine (or any other machine) &
communicating to the Macs via TCP/IP?  Oracle assures us that this
will work, and keeping the databases on a Unix-based server gives better
access and reliability; but I'd be interested in hearing from other
folks before I actually spend $$ on it.

Thanks, I'll summarize if any responses.
