Hello everybody!!!

I am using moodle 2.2.6, My problem is that, I have to use the details of students from Oracle database to Mysql database of my moodle installation. I found that there are some applications through which data may be synchronised at run time. Now, I am confused about how moodle will use these tables for student authentication. We have student master table, and other for the subjects opted by students....Please help me to sort out this issue.....

You should be able to use this....

External_database_authentication

If that isn't possible, the usual trick is to arrange a feed of data from the Oracle database to a special database/table in MySQL and then use the External_database_authentication to access it.
