First ensure that you can connect to the server via TCP/IP with another application such as FTP. The next thing to check would be your connect string in c:\windows\oracle.ini. Within this file should be a line:

LOCAL=T:<server>:<sid>

Where T specifies the TCP/IP protocol. <server> is the ip address or the name of your server. And <sid> is the instance name you specified on creation of your database.

Hope it helps. Received on Wed Sep 06 1995 - 00:00:00 CEST
