GOAL:
Can the same service name be used to connect remote clients to a Database?
FIX:
Yes.
The ONLY way for these remote clients to connect is via this ONE port/service name.
Assuming that a Database is started using -S serviceName01, then any client connecting via a remote system MUST use this same service name to connect to the Database. The Database broker was started on this port, and it is only through this port that any clients are able to connect.
This service name must be defined in the 'Services' file on the remote machine making the connection, and must be defined as the same port number that serviceName01 is defined as on the Database server machine.
