fair point about lack of info. You guessed correctly about contents of tnsnames file. Many thanks.

Try turning on SQL Net tracing to discover the problem. Turn on tracing on the client PC by adding the appropriate trace parameters to the sqlnet.ora file.
This will produce a trace file upon your next connection attempt and you will be able to (hopefully) see what is causing the problem. It is hard for anyone to diagnose a connectivity problem without more information like which version of Oracle, is a Names Server being used?, does the target server's IP address exist in the PC's local host file?, etc.

I access a database from 2 different sites, having a PC at each site.

At one site I use NT and have no problems.

At the other site I use Win 2000 and usually get an error message when trying to log on

ORA-12545 Connect failed because target host or object does not exist

Occasionally it lets me on.

People at the other site tell me that they can connect ok

Anyone know what might be causing the problem?
