Did you set the environment variables per the installation instructions into .profile?
Have you verified that the listener is started? Have you looked at the sqlnet.ora file?
Have you looked at the tnsnames.ora file?

What did you see?

And to help you we must have the ORA-##### error message, the complete error message text, and which version of 9i.
