You have to understand the layers involved when establishing a connection.

Start testing your TCP/IP using the ping command.
When it's all right go on and test the TNS layer using the tnsping command.

If you still have troubles look carefully on the error message returned. The error message will tell you if the problem is at the client side or at the host side.

Remember that TNS is similar to TCP/IP, i.e you have to list both the instance and the domain correct.
