We've been using the Oracle 10gr2 client on SLES 9 to talk to some distributed oracle DB server.
We're trying to get it to work on sles 10. It works except when security is enabled. We are getting oracle error (#12657), which says: Cause: The near side of the connection required the use of a service (either encryption or checksumming) when no algorithms for that service were installed. Action: Remove the "ON" requirement for that service. The following lines are in the Oracle sqlnet.ora file for our connection to the Oracle database, which I believe uses this checksumming & encryption settings... SQLNET.CRYPTO_CHECKSUM_TYPES_CLIENT= (MD5) SQLNET.CRYPTO_CHECKSUM_CLIENT= requested SQLNET.ENCRYPTION_TYPES_CLIENT= (DES, DES40) SQLNET.ENCRYPTION_CLIENT= required Commenting out these lines works, but we need to have them in there. Any idea why Oracle is complaining about not having the needed algorithms installed? Marcy Cortes This message may contain confidential and/or privileged information.
