The Cold Fusion documentation has some good stuff on connecting to an oracle database. You really need to read through the entire section, since depending on your platform there are some very specific issues that must be addressed.

The trouble is I am not entirely sure what the host string is supposed to look like in the input box - is it dbasename/username@hostname or nothing like the above? I hope someone can help with this.
