[Quoted] I don't know what is wrong, but i had a similar mistake, using the host-name instead of the IP-No. When naming the host in the Win-Network, Win2000 used different names, internal and in the network. So try a shorter host name without an >-< or use the IP-Adress of our host in the tnsnames.ora. Received on Wed May 29 2002 - 11:59:07 CEST
