I think the best way is to go to SQLNET.ORA and look for the ordering of the
NAME.DIRECTORY_PATH.

Remove one by one and you know what is being used. Mostly i think it will be
Name Server.

A query: Is HOST NAMING used widely?

        I believe the Java thin client can connect without using the
tnsnames.ora file.

Does anyone here knows how to setup the connections to
the database server without using tnsnames.ora?

Our DBA didn't use it. But I don't know how and why?
Could anyone tell me the other options?
