You must check following things :
1. Ping your server from workstation using ping utility (i.e from Windows 95) [this means that works TCP/IP]
2. Ping your Oracle server with TNSPING <aliasname> from workstation [this means works listener on Netware server] 3. Start Oracle nlms on Netware (oraload.ncf or something else) 4. Start Oracle server with svrmgr30.nlm.

Connect internal and type STARTUP OPEN pfile=<path to initSID.ora file on Netware>
5. Start Listener with lsnctl80.nlm typing START.

If everything works then You can connect to Oracle server.
