QUESTION POSED ON: 12 October 2006
Is it necessary the Oracle server should be on a Windows OS to connect to Oracle Gateway installed on a Windows machine where MS SQL Server is also installed? What I mean is, can we access SQL Server from the Oracle server database installed on Linux through a transparent gateway installed on a Windows machine? If so how do we do that?

>
Yes, you can access SQL Server from Oracle running on any server as long as you have the Gateway product for that server. Once installed you can access other non-Oracle databases in exactly the same way, irrespective of platform type.
