I'm having trouble connecting to a server running Java JDK 1.2.2 with Oracl'es Java driver, Classes12.zip. This driver was freshly download from Oracles Web Site. I get an exception,

                 End of TNS data channel

Here is the code fragment that causes the exception:

// The driver to load

  static final String driver_class = "oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver";

// The connect string

  static final String connect_string =

                                    //<host>:<port>:<sid>
                  "jdbc:oracle:thin:@myServer:1521:myDataBase";

	  // Load the JDBC driver
	  Class.forName (driver_class);

	  // Connect to the databse
	  conn = DriverManager.getConnection (connect_string, "myUserId",
                                                            "myPassWord");

          // ^^^^^ exception caused by this connect. 

Here's the exception text:

java.sql.SQLException: End of TNS data channel

   at oracle.jdbc.dbaccess.DBError.check_error(DBError.java:406)
   at oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleConnection.<init>(OracleConnection.java:169)
   at oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver.getConnectionInstance(OracleDriver.java:231)
   at oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver.connect(OracleDriver.java:208)

   at java.sql.DriverManager.getConnection(DriverManager.java:457)    at java.sql.DriverManager.getConnection(DriverManager.java:137)

Does anyone have any pointers.
