Subject: ORA-28030: Server encountered problems accessing LDAP directory service

I've recently inherited an Oracle 8.1.6 system and was just trying to
setup a database link between two instances.  I've granted the "create
database link" priv to the user account and can successfully create the
link but when I try to do a "select from table_name@linked_db;" I get
the following error:

ERROR at line 1:
ORA-28030: Server encountered problems accessing LDAP directory service

Earlier I had a TNS error and found that my tnsnames.ora file was
missing one of my instances.  I fixed that problem and tnsping now
responds correctly but I'm still getting the error listed on the subject
line.  My sqlnet.ora file contains "NAMES.DIRECTORY_PATH= (TNSNAMES)" so
everything should be set to use my local tnsnames.ora file.  I've been
going through Oracle Net 8 documentation but still haven't found
anything.  Does anyone have any suggestions?  Thanks...

David
