Hi

Just check if the Oracle service was created and if its running or not...

c:\set ORACLE_SID=TEST

c:\oradim -new -SID TEST -SRVC OracleServiceTEST -INTPWD password -pfile file

just make sure u have the initfile in hand :-)

Adding SQLNET.authentication_services=(NTS) to sqlnet.ora file, then connect internal will not need password.

and what other values it can take ?
