Have you configure the tnsnames.ora file?

Subject: Listener Problem

Dear Oracle gurus,

I am having a problem to connect to my database server, which is Oracle 8.0.4 under Windows NT.

Whenever I am trying to connect from my PC, I am getting error message as

ORA-12505: TNS: listener could not resolve SID given in connect descriptor

Cause: The SID in the CONNECT_DATA was not found in the listener's tables. This error will be returned if the database instance has not registered with the listener; the instance may need to be started.

Action: Check to make sure that the SID specified is correct. The SIDs that are currently registered with the listener can be obtained by typing "LSNRCTL SERVICES <listener name>". These SIDs correspond to SID_NAMEs in TNSNAMES.ORA, or
DB_NAMES in the initialization file.

But I am giving the oracle_sid correctly only, as I checked with my init.ora
file.

Just yesterday only I installed Oracle in a new development server, Listener
is running very much, as I checked in Services under control panel. Am I missing anymore steps after installation?

Please update me to get connected with oracle server from my pc.

Thanks in advance

Balu Srinivasan.
