[ILUG] Oracle-compatible client

[Ciaran Bradley]

If you don't want to use the Java GUI that comes with the Enterprise Edition
of 8i try SQL Work. It runs on Linux and will connect to any oracle dB that
you specify a valid TNS name for
http://oracle.mattshouse.com/sqlwork

You should also check out the rest of their Oracle tools, particularly
Object Manager. It's quite useful for browsing an Oracle database.
