sqlplus fails on local connect

I cannot connect to my local database, i.e. on the same machine,
via sqlplus with this command:



        sqlplus scott/tiger



but this will work:



        sqlplus scott/tiger_at_test



I know that I have connected to oracle databases before (and
continue to do so) with the first command.  Why doesn't it
work?  I have my ORACLE_HOME and ORACLE_SID set correctly.
It has nothing to do with the listener.



I am sorry for such a simple, stupid question.  But, after
years of using oracle, I am simply frustrated with this one.



Thanks ahead of time.


Bozzio.
