Did you install SQL*net v2 on W95 machine. If you want to configure files using Network Manager, you will have to install 16 bit version which is the 'Windows' directory in C:\orawin directory.

If you do not plan to use Oracle Names, then you can use SQL*Net Easy Config to generate tnsnames.ora file. In that case you can use both 16 and 32 bit versions.
