Wow! Your ONS is frequently down? What version and what server? I've been
running ONS on an 8.0.5.0.1 DB on OpenVMS for 419 days with the only
interruption being a planned IP Class-B-to-Class-C upgrade on the network
(Note: The SERVER didn't need rebooting -- just the networking!). Our
backup ONS is on my Windohs Tuke workstation and is up and down, depending
on the wind direction apparently. All clients use ONS only. Our main DB
server has local naming as an "Oh Shitzu" backup so that DBMS_JOBs and such
on that server don't need external naming resolution, should they require a
link to another server.
BTW, we also don't currently use default domains, but I'll probably change
that at some point, seeing as Oracle tools like OEM practically shove it
down your throat <sigh>.

In short, I don't. I use local resolution (as our ONS is frequently down and
unreliable) and none of my aliases have domain names attached to them. In my
sqlnet.ora, the entries about default domain, etc. are all commented out.
