Sorry for not being able to help you directly. I want to use the opportunity to complain about the IMHO WORST WINDOWS PROGRAM I personally ever saw.
If you try to "Connect" twice with a wrong configuration you will get an UAE.
If the connection is directed towards a V1 SQL*Net server all other clients are stopped and there is no chance to stop the orasrv besides to kill the orasrv process. With a screen resolution of 800 x 600 you need to move the V1 connect string window three times to the left until you can reach the Cancel button.
The help system is a laugh.
The booklet "Customer Information" is full of addresses which are not readable (look after Austria or Germany). It looks as if no quality assurance ever happended. So I presume that even if you can puzzle out the problem with share.exe Oracles Network Manager is unusable. It is a shame and I hope that someome of Oracle is reading this and announcing a complete rework of the so called Network Manager.

P.S.: I am working with Oracle RDBMS for 3 years now and like to   work with it but those Windows releases are a pain and nothing   more.
