Hi All,

Thanks for your responses!

As per the suggestions below i thought of taking 1 step at a time by doing the following:

1. Checked all environment variables are set in my .bash_profile file. $ORACLE_HOME and $ORACLE_SID returns correct results.

2. I tried to connect to SQLPLUS from the unix prompt directly....I enter the user name and password....but I get the following error:

Code:
ERROR:
ORA-12545: Connect failed because target host or object does not exist

I tried to research on this error message and everywhere it mentions that i should check the entries in TNSNAMES.ora......i cross checked the entries and everything looks fine to me....below is the entry from my tnsnames.ora file...

Code:
VOMSD1=(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=10.5.199.106)(PORT=1521))(CONNECT_DATA=(SID=PHYGD1)))

Could anyone please guide me as to what i might be missing which is preventing me from connecting to the database on a remote machine - 10.5.199.106??

Thanks,
Shruti
