Your question is not clear.
If your trying to CONNECT to a database then all you need to do is SQL> connect scott/tiger_at_dev

	where  "dev" is your connect string define in your SQL*Net configuration
	files.   (listener.ora and tnsnames.ora)

If your trying to create a database then you must use Server Manager with a corresponding initialisation file (init.ora) and proper environment
variables. (ORACLE_HOME, ORACLE_SID)

Hope this help.
