Hi,
I'm new in this forum.
I have to following situation installed in one machine:
- xp pro with oralce8174 (server and client)
- rhel4 (vmware) with: oracle9i (server and client)

Now, I would like to connect xp onto rhel4 using sqlplus.

After started oracle9i and cofigurated the tnsnames.ora in xp

RHEL4.WORLD =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 192.168.33.99)(PORT = 1521))
)
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = MATRIX.WORLD)
)
)


The HOST value is the IP for the network adapter per vmWare.

When I try to connect myself I caught the error in title.
can somebody help me ??

PS:I have to tell that when I installed the rhel4 the db, I called it Matrix (sid) but it's also the machine name for xp
