Hi, if you are bale to connect to the other databases from your machine using sqlplus, then you should be able to connect to those databases by crating a DSN in using ODBC datasources in control panel. If you can send me your code, I can solve your problem. I think the URL which you gave, is not in the proper format.
if you are going to use jdbc

dbc bridge, then the syntax would be like this.
Connection con = DriverManager.getconnection("jdbc

dbc:yourdatasourcename","userid","password");
I hope this would help you otherwise send me an email to
