If you type 'oerr ora 6105' you get the following from the error message program......

% oerr ora 6105
06105, 00000, "NETTCP: remote host is unknown" // *Cause: Host name specified in the login (connect) string is unknown. // *Action: Check spelling; make sure name is in the TCP/IP HOST file.  

I think this might be a help to you!
