check your database link with select count(*) from tab@dblink if it is not working then look for sqlnet.ora file with entry sqlnet.authentication_services=(NTS) if it is there then remove it. There may be some other causes like sid could not be resolved and network is down so resolve those errors accordingly and also make sure your init parameter is reflecting no of active db links
such as OPEN_LINKS, OPEN_LINKS_PER_INSTANCE.
