Thanks for your help, but it seems unlikely that the SIZE of the shared memory region would be a problem. Remember that I can connect just fine as long as I log in as "oracle". If I log in as "gsker" then I get the aforementioned error. Why would SIZE cause this problem? I think I will try upping the size of the shared memory anyway. I can't think of anything else to try.

Thanks!
