I do know Windows better than Oracle. Of course I checked the services section. The Management Server could not be started, neither automatically nor manually.

But the problem is described in news groups archives. Others have had the same problem. It was solved by changing SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICE=(NTS) to SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICE=(). I do not know why this change was necessary here on this specific PC (maybe Windows 2000, maybe Active Directory, maybe PDC same as Oracle server), nor do I know why it hasn't been done automatically by the setup.
