Does anybody have any advise or experience of accessing Oracle Databases 
over a Wide Area Network?

Our Worry list currently contains the following items:

1. The ability to restrict Access through our firewall to certain databases

2. Performance of SQL*Net / Net*8 over a WAN consisting of Frame-Relay and 
VPN (between 128Mb to 2Gb) - Does Oracle use a "chatty" protocol?

3. The security of the data being transmitted.

I would love to hear from others who have overcome these issues.

Kind Regards,

Darren Collard
