External Authentication in Net mode

[sennis]

I have a database that has External Authentication set up, and of course I'd like to connect my application to it.

Currently we're using ODAC in NET mode (Direct mode?) .

I understand from previous discussions http://forums.devart.com/viewtopic.php? ... ory#p19471 that the recommended method is to is OCI mode.

And for the same reasons as the original poster on that thread, I'd rather not use OCI mode. Has there been any movement forward on this issue? Can we now connect to an Externally Authenticated Oracle database with ODAC in NET mode?

Hello,

No, this functionality is no available in Direct mode.
