You have added an entry for the server in TNSnames for both SQLNet and Net8? If you can connect through SQL Plus 3.3, you should have SQLNet working. If you cann connect through SQL Plus 8, you should have Net8 working.

Net 8 config should be in <Oracle_Home>\Net80\Admin\TNSNames.ora

SQLNet config should be in <Oracle_Home>\Network\Admin\TNSNames.ora Received on Sat Apr 03 1999 - 15:54:12 CST
