title: Connecting to Oracle database from another machine on LAN
body: <p>Am a newbie to oracle, I've Oracle Database installed on my windows machine and I can connect to the database without any problem from my machine using the sqlPlus / SQL Developer. And I have a java application in my machine which needs to connect to the Database using JDBC driver. After downloading the ojdbc driver I can connect to the java application by providing the connection url as <code>jdbc:oracle:thin:@127.0.0.1:1521:orcl</code> </p>
  
  <p>Now, I want to know how can I connect to my oracle database that is installed in my machine (ip address:10.0.xx.xx) from the java application which is running in another machine (ip address:10.0.yy.yy). BTW both the machines are connected in LAN.</p>
  
  <p>Do I need to change anything in listener configuration or in tnsnames.ora file? </p>
