Ok, I'll admit, I'm stumped. I'm trying to do an active database duplication between two different servers. I've got the AUX instance setup and I can successfully connect to it from the target database box and query v$instance.

I can start RMAN, connecting successfully to the target and the aux instance.

However when I start the duplicate, It fails with this error:

ORA-17629: Cannot connect to the remote database server
ORA-17627: ORA-01031: insufficient privileges
ORA-17629: Cannot connect to the remote database server

(full output at the end of this email)...

So, I can connect with SQLPlus but the duplicate fails.... any ideas?
