Hi,
Pls. check your current system to see whether it meets the following conditions or not:
1. You must have CREATE SESSION privilege on the remote Oracle database. Net8 must be installed on both the local and remote Oracle databases. 2. To use the link, the current user must be a global user with global accounts on both the local and remote databases. Both databases must be members of the same security domain.

And then I'll give you an example to create database link. I have two servers in the same Domain: UTEST1 and UTEST2. In UTEST1, my connect string is DEV1 and user name's TEST1. In UTEST2, my connect string is DEV2 and user name's TEST2.
-Using SQL*PLUS to log on DEV1 by TEST1 user and create new table, for example,
employee.
-Using SQL*PLUS to log on DEV2 by TEST2 user and then create database link as
follows:

     create public database link test1.dev1 connect to test1 indentified by test1

     using 'dev1';
     commit;

After finishing, you can select data from employee as follows: select * from employee_at_test1.dev1;

Everything will be fine. For further information, do not hesitate to contact me.

Hopefully you get success,
