Sorry, but this is just 100% wrong.  I've set up Oracle on many boxes and you
don't need any DNS at all to set up an oracle DB.  In fact, I tell our DBA's
to use IP addresses in their TNSNAMES.ORA files because I don't want the DB
depending on DNS.

        So... you'd rather type in the address
                3ffe:801:bbc4:873d:2d0:b7ff:fee8:c4d9
        than the name  
                fedb.example.com?

        More power to you.
