If you are asking what port number ArcSDE uses to communicate with the client application, there is no port used for direct connections (shared memory communication is used).

If you are referring to the port the database uses, that would vary from site to site and DBMS to DBMS. It would be entirely possible that the DBMS is not communicating through TCP/IP. For this information, you'd need to consult your DBA.

Dear Peter,

Does direct connect provide a better performance than ArcSDE service connection? Any guideline on selecting the type of connections?

Thank you.

Can someone tell me what files and where the files are installed when you run the setup.exe for GDB Direct Connect (to an older version of arcsde). I have installed arcgis desktop and arcgis server 9.3.1 and need to have direct connection to an arcsde 9.2 spatial database so I installed the arcsde sde drivers using GDB Direct Connect. I thought I'd see sdeoracle10g92.dll in the ARCGISHOME\bin directory but I do not. Infact, I do not see sdeoracle10g92.dll anywhere on the computer so I am just curious what got installed and where.

If you installed backward-compatible direct-connect drivers, you should have files with names like gsrvrora10g92.dll and gsrvrsql92.dll in your ARCGISHOME\bin folder.
