You can't just make a dial-up connection. The connection must support one
of the protocols supported by sqlnet and you must have a listener set up
for that protocol. Is this not clear from the documentation? It isn't even
reasonable to expect oracle to be able to communicate over a straight
serial connection without some type of communications protocol.
