Installing OCI Libraries for 8i

[khammer99]

Hi,

I recently set up the the JDBC envrionment for our developers. They asked me about using SSL, so I looked into it and found the OCI shared libraries for Solaris (the platform we run on). These are for Oracle 9i, but the JDBC FAQ says that it will run on the 8.1.5 release (this is our
release).
Ok, the brillant deduction. I'm assuming these libraries have to be loaded on the client (application server) since OCI stands for Oracle Client Interface right? Also, does the
Oracle 8.1.5 release support SSL connections, or do I have to do some more work there also?

Thanks

Yes to both questions.

For setting up Oracle 8.1.5 SSL check Oracle Advanced Security Administrator's Guide - that's where most of your information will be.
