I am having problems establishing a network connection to a 7.3 oracle server. The local connection works fine with the demo programs.

I have reverted to using tnsping to check if name I specifiy in the connect string is good. tnsping doesnt work either.

Using the WINOCI.EXE program in the demos I have tried connecting with a number of connect strings. ORCL, etc....

I also have looked in the /orant/network/admin directory that the configuration files to determine what connect string I should use.

Can someone tell me how I determine what port the Listener is on. I have it running on the control pannel. Also is the Agent reguired to be running for network usage? I am also interested in where I can setup a new connection string to allow a client to connect to a remote server.

Sorry for the vague-ness and help is appreciated. Thanks,
