You should enable client and server level tracing get more details pertaining to this type of error.  Given more detail, we may be able to get to the bootom of the problem.

  Subject: config problem on 8.1.7   

   Hi, List:
  We have two oracle server running at different boxes with   different ip addresses (all same, the version is   8.1.7). For 8.1.5 clients, they can connect both   servers without any problem. However, For 8.1.7   clients, clients can only connect to one of server, even you copy   the correct entry and then modify the ipaddress pointing to   another one. Still has problem.
  The error message is:

The only difference is ipaddress.... Thanks for you advice
