Hi, what is the syntax for using ocilogon() to connect to a remote server? The remote server's name is zed.mdah.state.ms.us (ip is 10.8.5.4) and the database is zed.aleph0. Locally on zed I can do ociogon("user","pw","zed.alpeh0") and connect fine, but on a remote server I try ociogon("user","pw","zed.alpeh0@10.8.5.4") but it errors out with an oci_open_server error. I tried going to www.php.net/ocilogon but the page doesn't exist, so does anyone know how the proper connect line to connect to a remote server that runs oracle? Thanks!

You may want to use something like this as your DB string: (DESCRIPTION= (ADDRESS_LIST=

    (ADDRESS =
      (COMMUNITY = tcp_comm.world)
      (PROTOCOL = TCP)
      (Host = 10.8.5.4)
      (Port = 1521)
    )

) (CONNECT_DATA =

    (SID = zed.alpeh0)
       (GLOBAL_NAME = zed.alpeh0.world)

) ) -- paperCrane <Justin Patrin>
