John,

I think the problem is in your listener.ora.

Where is your SID List section?
You've defined a listener but there are no databases services configured in it.
On UNIX using netmgr GUI adding a new database service to your listener adds something like the following to your listener.ora:

SID_LIST_LISTENER =
  (SID_LIST =
    (SID_DESC =

      (GLOBAL_DBNAME = Oracle8.dto.tudelft.nl)
      (ORACLE_HOME = /app/oracle/product/9.2.0)
      (SID_NAME = ORCL)

    )
  )
