SCO Unix Oracle 7 Connection from Windows 95

        Hello everyone. Please don't laugh at my message.

I work with an Oracle 7.1 system over SCO Unix System V server. When I connect to it on a Windows 3.1 client through Novell Netware 3.12, everything is OK, SQL*Net does its work, and I can accurately connect to the database. SQL*Net version is 2.2.

With the Windows 95 Intranetware client, it is impossible to connect to the database. TCP/IP connections work, but TNS gives an error. It says "TNS:protocol adapter error". I cannot even TNSPING the database. Maybe I need any additional software? Where can I find it? Maybe a misconfiguration?

By the way, I've tried to use Delphi to connect to the database, and I cannot use Delphi native drivers. It does not work. Maybe I'm missing some dll, but I cannot find out which one is it. If someone could help on any of these matters, I'd be quite grateful.

Thanks for taking the time on reading my messsage, and thanks in advance if you take the time to answer. If you need more details, please answer to my mail.
