I have developed a JAVA application on NT which uses the Oracle DB running on UNIX. It has been running fine, now I have to move the JAVA process also to the same UNIX box which hosts the Oracle DB. My question is:
I was using the "jdbc:oracle:oci8:@" oci8 driver for NT, Do I have to change my driver to make it work on UNIX?
Thanks for any help

From conick's link:
One must have Net8 (SQL*Net) installed and working before attempting to use one of the OCI drivers.
But most people I know use the thin driver anyway.
You can get it for free at technet.oracle.com. Just
make sure the thin driver is in your CLASSPATH, change
to a thin connect string, and it works great!

I have no personal experience, but it should. A quick google search turned up examples of using JDBC OCI drivers on various UNIX implementations.
Take a look at the Oracle JDBC FAQ:

Of course, you could always just try it. :)
