3.0 out of 5 stars High-level coverage of Oracle Networking, needs details..., September 24, 1998

By A Customer

A good book if you are looking for a overview of Oracle in a network environment. Ignores the database itself (as it should). Covers Wide range of Oracle Networking components like SQL*Net, ODBC, network security, etc. Lacks technical usage details on individual parts. Good for DBA's, Sysadmin's and programmers trying to understand the network/communications area of Oracle.
