There really isn't a reason not to, or you can pick the port # of your choice if you like.

This is related to your earlier posting about the Oracle Listener. You should enter for the "SQL*Net v2 service" the name you have given the Oracle SID in your TNSNAMES.ORA file. By virtue of the error message below, it sounds like you don't have one in your TNSNAMES.ORA (btw, the default location for the TNSNAMES.ORA, LISTENER.ORA,etc.is in $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin). You can generate one of these pretty easily using the SQL*Net Easy Configuration utility.

You also should make sure that you have an entry in the LISTENER.ORA for the SID of the database you want to connect to. Make sure the Listener is up and runnining on a specific port.
