Oracle 8 Client for Sparc system
Hi!
I am trying to locate Oracle 8 Client for Solaris on Sparc system and NOT x86.
Can you point me to the EXACT link where I can download. I have tried Oracle and Sun FreWare sites. Sun FreWare does not have it.
The closest I see is on the Oracle site is "Oracle 8i Enterprise for Sparc". I'm not sure if I have to download the entire 600MB+ software to get to the client install; or even does it have it bundled in with the package?

This solution is only available to members.
To access this solution, you must be a member of Experts Exchange.
I should mention that the 9i and 10g clients have worked fine with 8i databases for me.

Thanks!
I decided to download the full suite for Sparc from Oracle site. I actually need 8.1.7.x - so I am fine with that.
My next challnege is to extract and install and configure just the client.
I am hoping I will find step-by-step details somewhere.
