Hi,
I'm trying to connect to an oracle oracle 8.1.7 server running on a solaris system from the internet. The database instance on the server is called 'prd1'. I added the following entry in tnsnames.ora on the client system. But when trying to connect I keep getting the following error:
ORA-12545: Connect failed because target host or object does not exist
There may be an error in the fields entered,
or the server may not be ready for a connection.
Port 1521 is open on the server. What else should be open to get a connection?
Help please
Thanks
