I had some problems with news last week, so I thought I had better repost this  
message.

Is SQL*Net required in order to use DBKit with the Oracle Adaptor?  Some poor  
soul out that has been using the adaptor, please let me know.  I am getting no  
where currently with the DBModeler.  

I find no reference in the documentation to SQL*Net.  In fact, the  
documentations state that only SQL*Plus access is needed.  But, I am beginning  
to determine that this is in reference to access to Oracle, meaning if you have  
an account you can access Oracle with through SQL*Plus, you should be able to  
use the adaptor.  However, there is a hint of SQL*Net in the DBModeler examples  
login strings.

Neil,

You need to make sure that you netinfo services contains an entry for  
orasrv (tcp, 1525) on the client machine as well as the server. Sql*net is  
linked into the oracle adaptor bundle (the adaptor REALLY wants to use the  
sql*net tcp/ip driver).

Please email me if you continue to have problems.
