How can I connect 2 different databases via database triggers?

DB1 = Oracle 9i Version 9.205
DB2 = Oracle 7.23

both databases are running above unix.

DBLink doesn't work with those versions, and I want update differents tables between databases.

Thanks.
 
Hello,

The bad news is that Oracle doesn't offer connectivity between v7 and v9.

Your best bet is to somehow use Oracle 8i as a go-between.

One option might be to have an 8i listener serving these instances (are they on the same box ?) and use TNS entries that access that listener.

Thanks, Steve. I will test your idea.
