Customers are trying to use database link against Rdb...
I'm not so sure if this kind of feature is supported .
Thanks for any advise.

| No, this isn't supported at this time. I think it's mentioned in the DOC, but you might also check out the FAQ pointed to from our web page: http://nhdig1.us.oracle.com:2080/sqlnet4rdb/ We are looking at supporting this kind of think in the future. However today they still need to purchase the Transparent Gateway for Rdb. - Ray | |||||
