Is this possible? Should be backwards compatible right?

Currently seeing "could not resolve the connect identifier specified".

DBA said I should use this in my tnsnames and I do:

mydev.world =
  (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =

        (ADDRESS =


          (PROTOCOL = TCP)

          (Host = 1.2.3.4) // not the actual IP of course

          (Port = 1521)

        )

    )
    (CONNECT_DATA =

       (SID = mydev)
       (SERVICE_NAME = mydev.world)

    )
)

tnsping returns this for "tnsping mydev.world"

Used TNSNAMES adapter to resolve the alias Attempting to contact (DESCRIPTION = (ADDRESS_LIST = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)
(HOST = 1.2.3.4)(PORT = 1521))) (CONNECT_DATA = (SID = mydev) (SERVER = DEDICATED)))
OK (380 msec)

What's this DEDICATED business? New for 10?

thanks.
