I see dozens of messages along these lines. Anyone installing onto a laptop is clearly doing so for learning/research purposes.

In which case, do it properly: run Oracle inside a virtual machine, preferably running White Box Linux, so that you are learning a properly certified, adult operating system and Oracle combination. It's sandboxed, so the vagaries of your physical platform are hidden from Oracle, and all it requires is sufficient RAM (512MB minimum). In your specific case, VMware would have taken care of the connected/disconnected issue.

You can of course just take Daniel's advice to poke around in sqlnet.ora. But if you actually want to learn Oracle properly, you will investigate VMware, White Box Linux, and insulate yourself from these sorts of issues in the future.
