Database link for a remote server which I cannot even ping

SmithJohn45Apr 16 2025 — edited Apr 16 2025

OS: Windows 10 - DB: 21c EE - Apache Tomcat 9 - ORDS 24.x

I want to create a Database Link to a Server machine I cannot ping… I have no idea but want to know what are the requirements to create a DB Link of a Remote Server.

I can create a DB Link for internal Database instances using tns entries.

CREATE PUBLIC DATABASE LINK EDULINK CONNECT TO edu IDENTIFIED BY xxxxxx USING 'RMTPDB';

with kind regards
