Hi all,

I tried to create a database link like this:

create database link test connect icssowner identified
by icssowner using 'AU40CNV';

when I used it, I got:
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-02085: database link TEST.WORLD connects to
AU34TD.WORLD

I created other links to AU40CNV, but I got that err
again, the link ALWAYS goes to AU34TD.WORLD!!! why?

Thanks

Andrea
