VTK-1000, ORA-12154, TNS-12541, does it ever stop?

I've installed Oracle 11i on a stand-alone Windows 2000 machine. The install worked fine. I'm just installed the Vision demo. The machine has an internet connection that gets assigned a dynamic IP address. The Oracle domain is "dundee". The hosts file lists

127.0.0.1    localhost
127.0.0.1    dundee
127.0.0.1    dundee.dundee

When I try to connect to the OEM using the Enterprise Manager Console
(using sysman/oem_temp and VIS service), I get the message VTK-1000.
If I disconnect the internet connection, it changes to VTK-1001. Either way no luck.

Other posts indicate to use the Configuration assistant to create a new repository. I get an ORA-12154 message there (once again using sysman_oem_temp and the VIS service). I deleted the default domain portion of the sqlnet.ora file with no change in this message.
(Tricky using Notepad.)

If I try the command TNSPING Dundee I get a TNS-12541 error.

Fun, wow.

Also, I can't get to the application screens. After I sign in to the ICXINDEX web page using Sysadmin/sysadmin, no other userid/pwd combination is valid. Apps/Apps, or Service/Welcome works for all the Windows applications, but nothing works here after getting in the front door with sysadmin/sysadmin.

Fun, wow.

Is there an easy solution to either of these problems? Are they related?
