TNS failure - NT

"tnsping oradev" and "tnsping oradev.sententia" results in TNS:packet writer failure

Here is my tnsname.ora

ORADEV.SENTENTIA
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(PORT = 1521) (HOST = DEV))
(CONNECTION_DATA =

  (SERVICE_NAME = ORADEV))) here it the entry in listener.ora

LISTENER =
 (DESCRIPTION_LIST = (DESCRIPTION =
   (ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY=EXTPROC0))
)
(ADDRESS_LIST = (ADDRESS =
(PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = DEV)(PORT = 1521)))))
When I test the listener using lsnrctl status oradev.sententia

I get the same error

TNS:packet writer failure
TNS: protocol adapter error...

Any ideas ?
