    To create a centralised tnsnames.ora

    Hi Friends,
    We have more than 6 QA database's, and each time any new DB is up i need to make changes in all the QA database.I am planing to create a centralised location for tnsnames.ora file where in i just add in one location and all the 6 QA gets this reflected.Can any one help me in setting this up or help in getting DOC's on this.

    I appreciate all ur help.

    You could get a shared mount point, and set the environment variable TNS_ADMIN to where you want to keep your sqlnet files.

    If that doesn't work for some reason, you could always soft link all tnsnames.ora's in each ORACLE_HOME to one file on a shared mount point.
