can you give us more information (OS, version of OS, error message -- anything)
You say it does not work with 8.1.5 (i don't have an 8.0.5 instance handy to test with) but:
Oracle8i Enterprise Edition Release 8.1.5.0.0 - Production
With the Partitioning and Java options
PL/SQL Release 8.1.5.0.0 - Production
SQL> create database link oracle73.world using 'oracle73.world'; Database link created.
