Hi,
you should add something like this to your tnsnames file:
ABC_NAME.XYZ.EDU =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = <ip address or hostname of the db
host>)(PORT = 1521))
)
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = CAMPUS)
)
)
Also you could check for sample files in $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin/samples directory.
Regards,
