Interesting... can you tell us the exact platform and version of Oracle you are running? The fact that you are getting "EOF on ..." (aka ORA-3113) generally means you are at least reaching the listener. I can only guess that it's failing to spawn a shadow server for you or redirecting you to a non-existent dispatcher if you are configured for MTS. Neither of these ring a bell for me.
