Hi,
Do you or the applications connect to the database using OS authentication? (single signon)
to use sqlplus as an example;
sqlplus username/password_at_alias
or
sqlplus /@alias
if the second example then you may find that the oracle user may require a domain extension added to the username ie;
where as you may have had an oracle user fred identified externally you may now need an oracle user "DOMAIN\fred"
