Problem connecting to Ora 7.3.4 from 8.0.5

Hi,

I am trying to connect to an Ora 7 server (on SCO/UNIX) from our Ora 8 (on RH6.0) server using sqlplus. I have added an entry for the server and sid in the Ora 8's tnsnames.ora file, and whenever I try to connect to the Ora 7 box I get a TNS 12125 Error - can't resolve service name.

Is there a known problem connecting to Ora7 from Ora8 clients/servers?

tnsping from Ora8 to Ora7 works fine.

TIA, Andrew Received on Thu Oct 14 1999 - 13:13:50 CDT
