RE: dbua ORA-12545

Actually TWO_TASK is not set - I signed in as oracle user and echoed it. Sooo.... I think my hope that finally after the many versions I have migrated - Oracle's assistant is finally ready to rock - is not correct. Mainly, do not get complete information running the migration that way. I find that really annoying - esp. as I have been spending a good deal of time lately in SQL Server land. It is sooooo much easier to work with as a DBA - the toolsets are so much more reliable and integrated. Sorry boys - I have turned yet - Oracle is still my first love - and to tell you the truth - having cut my teeth as a DBA on Oracle gives me an advantage for sure.

Paule, you have TWO_TASK environment variable set and dbua is trying to connect to host it cannot find. Unset TWO_TASK and everything will be OK.
