Hello

I recently installed the instant oracle client on a Suse linux desktop and I've been trying to get sqlplus to work

I've installed

oracle-instantclient-basic-10.1.0.3-1.i386.rpm
oracle-instantclient-jdbc-10.1.0.3-1.i386.rpm 
oracle-instantclient-sqlplus-10.1.0.3-1.i386.rpm

I've setup the TSN_ADMIN and ORACLE_HOME paths and also created a tnsnames.ora file

but still get the following error msg on my sqlnet.log:

Fatal NI connect error 12533, connecting to: (DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS
LIST=(ADDRESS=(COMMUNITY=TCPCOM)(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=144.243.79.20)(PORT=1521))) (CONNECT_DATA=(SID=p01)(CID=(PROGRAM=)(HOST=max-linux)(USER=max))))

  VERSION INFORMATION:
        TNS for Linux: Version 10.1.0.3.0 - Production   Time: 08-FEB-2005 10:39:50
  Tracing not turned on.
  Tns error struct:
    ns main err code: 12533
    TNS-12533: Message 12533 not found; No message file for     product=network, facility=TNS
    ns secondary err code: 0
    nt main err code: 0
    nt secondary err code: 0
    nt OS err code: 0

Could anybody help?

Tnx
