Does any body knows how to do it.

Sure you can do it. That's the beauty of Net8.

Both your NT box and your Unix box should be using a common protocol (TCP/IP for example). Your NT box would communicate through the Net8 alias for the Unix box and vice versa. You would have to setup a database link on each box in order to communicate with the other ( [url]http://technet.oracle.com/docs/products/oracle8i/doc_library/817_doc/server.817/a76960/partone.htm#435958[/url] )

Oracle on NT will see Oracle on Unix as just another Oracle database. Standard replication applies... ( [url]http://technet.oracle.com/docs/products/oracle8i/doc_library/817_doc/server.817/a76959/toc.htm[/url] )
