Hi all.

I have recently had to enable global_names in order to set up a 
replicated environment.  The application uses a database link to 
reconnect to the database under a differant user id (I inheirited 
this, I had nothing to do with the design!).  Appearantly, 
global_names has a prblem with this...

SQL>  select * from [EMAIL PROTECTED];
select * from [EMAIL PROTECTED]
                   *
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-02085: database link DONOT_TRIGGER.WORLD connects to DRL2.WORLD

SQL> !oerr ORA 2085
02085, 00000, "database link %s connects to %s"
// *Cause: a database link connected to a database with a different name.
//  The connection is rejected.
// *Action: create a database link with the same name as the database it
//  connects to, or set global_names=false.

So, does anybody have any work arounds or ideas how I can get this
thing working again?

TIA,
