Hello,

I am using Oracle 8.1.7.1 database on HP Unix 11 and getting ORA-12571: TNSacket writer failure.

I have searched Oracle metalink and deleted sql_expire.time parameter and still hitting this error message. I have turned tracing on at the highest level=16 and was unable to detect cause of this problem.

Can someone help me with this issue?

Thanks in advance
