Configuring Oracle Database and Oracle Net Services for Oracle DCE Integration
Configuring Oracle DCE Integration 10-17
■
protocol.ora
■
sqlnet.ora
Typically, CDS is used for name resolution. Thus, a local naming configuration file
(
tnsnames.ora
) is not used, except when loading names and addresses into CDS.
Parameters in protocol.ora
There are four DCE parameters located in the
protocol.ora
file
.
Each parameter
begins with the prefix
DCE
.
to distinguish it from parameters relevant to other
protocols. If default values are used for these four parameters, DCE Integration
does not require a
protocol.ora
file. The parameters and their current defaults
follow:
■
DCE.AUTHENTICATION=dce_secret
■
DCE.PROTECTION=pkt_integ
■
DCE.TNS_ADDRESS_OID=1.3.22.1.5.1
■
DCE.LOCAL_CELL_USERNAMES=TRUE
Configuration parameters are not case-sensitive; you can enter them in either
uppercase or lowercase.
DCE.AUTHENTICATION
The DCE.AUTHENTICATION parameter is optional. It indicates the authentication
value to be used for each DCE RPC. The client
DCE_AUTHENTICATION
value must
be the same as the server
DCE_AUTHENTICATION
value. If this entry is not
specified, cell-wide default authentication is used. The options follow:
DCE.PROTECTION
DCE.PROTECTION is an optional field that specifies the data integrity protection
levels for data transmission. The client
DCE_PROTECTION
level must be equal to or
Option Description
