Alex, you are correct. And that's how it worked in 8.1.6.
But due to some unknown 'feature' one has to explicitly set the
service_names and instance_name in the init .ora file as a workaround to be
able to use auto-register feature in 8.1.7. Again, only if using the default
listener name with default listener port#.. I have not yet tested this
stuff in 9.0.1 but will do in the very near future.
