OIT allows access to the CCDB [class projects database] on their Oracle Server(cactus.prism.gatech.edu) at port 1525 from both
the acme machines as well as outside. In order to connect using java, the oracle jdbc driver(classes12.zip & nls_charset12)
should be available and setup in the classpath. If you want to compile and run your java program from CoC Machines (Tokyo,
Lennon, etc.), the drivers are already available. All you have to do is add the following to either .cshrc(C-Shell) or .profile
(Bash-Shell) depending on the shell you are using.
