AFAIK, you should never have two identical service names ("sqlexec" in > this case) in this file. Obnoxio is right on here. The shared memory connection service is a dummy service and is not used for the connections, HOWEVER, if it happens to be the same as another connection on the same server the engine will add additional poll threads to the VPs configured in the NETTYPE parameter for that connection as a TCP connection which will eat resources and spin the CPU. In other words DON'T DO THAT! > >/etc/hosts > > 127.0.0.1 sb270t > > 2. Shouldn't this be localhost? YES the listeners are listening to the first address in /etc/hosts that has the symbolic name sb270t which is 127.0.0.1, or the local loopback driver, while the clients are trying to connect to the 212.164.48.68 address. Like holding the telephone receiver upside down and wondering why you and your caller cannot hear each other! Remove the sb270t name from the localhost address and all should be fine. > > 212.164.48.68 sb270t > > > >All work fine on localhost. But I cannot connect to database server > >from other PC? Art S.
