Oracle 9i client 10g database

Hi,

I looked for a thread (and I'd think this would have been a common one), can you connect a 9i sqlnet client to a 10g database?

From my 9i client box I keep getting :

> sqlplus jstrauss/jstrauss_at_tsprd

SQL*Plus: Release 9.0.1.0.0 - Production on Sun Apr 11 23:15:33 2004

(c) Copyright 2001 Oracle Corporation. All rights reserved.

ERROR:
ORA-12541: TNS:no listener

Whereas the same thing works on the 10g box

~$ sqlplus jstrauss/jstrauss_at_tsprd

SQL*Plus: Release 10.1.0.2.0 - Production on Sun Apr 11 23:15:37 2004

Connected to:
Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.1.0.2.0 - Production With the Partitioning, OLAP and Data Mining options
