Mr. Thickhead (or should I call you 'No Brain')

YOU HAVE TWO TNSNAMES.ORA FLOATING AROUND AND TWO DIFFERENT SETTINGS OF TNS_ADMIN
HERE
>> > export TNS_ADMIN=/opt/app/oracle/product/11.1.0/db_1/network/admin
AND HERE
>/u01/app/oracle/product/11.1.0/db_1/network/admin/sqlnet.ora

WHY DO YOU CONTINUE TO ANNOY THIS FORUM? SHOULD SOMEONE NUKE YOUR INSTALLATION OR BETTER NUKE YOU TO RESOLVE YOUR PROBLEM? YOU DON'T RESPOND TO ANY QUESTION. YOU KEEP ASKING WHAT IS WRONG.

IT IS Y O U!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
NOW PLEASE GET LOST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
