Multiple Databases

 Hiyas!

 Running 7.3.2.1 on an NT (obviously) and need to set up multiple databases. Creating two databases is not a problem, both with unique SIDs of course, and both seems to be running just fine (at least according to the Instance Manager) but I can't seem to be able to connect to the new (second) database in any way. SQLNet complaints that "ORA-12505: TNS:listener could not resolve SID given in connect descriptor". One would assume now, that I have confed SQLNet incorrect, giving it the wrong SID but I have checked that. The SID I use is the SID I told the Instance Manager to use when I set up the database (and, of course, the SID Instance Manager claims is running perfectly too).

 I'd be more than grateful for any ideas on how to solve this...
