Hi,
I have a problem in starting the database in NT. I shutdown the database using OEM Instance manager and the database went down normally. I tried restarting the database and got 'TNS: unable to connect to destination'. So i stopped and restarted the listener and tried staring the database. This also didn't work. Then I checked the tnsnames.ora and listener.ora for the entries. Everything seems to be fine. listener also gets started. When I tried to start the database from 'svrmgrl30' it says 'cannot connect to destination'. I tried different options like replacing the hostname with the original IP address and the listener comes up fine. All the jobs i tried was not as an oracle user. So should I have an oracle user created on NT and try using that account? Even then what is the relation between server manager and TNS destination? Is there any default password for connecting to Internal?

Thanks,
