Steff,
Olite is a completely different beast from Personal
Oracle or Oracle Server. It does not have a listener
and cannot receive incoming Net8 connections (it can
make outgoing Net8 connections). You connect to the
Olite db via ODBC (Olite 8i will also accept a JDBC
connection).
For an ODBC connection from SQL*Plus:
Username: SYSTEM
Password: MANAGER (actually I think anything will
work as Olite, or at least the pre-8i versions, didn't
check any security/privileges)
Connect string: ODBC:<dsn>
Where <dsn> is the ODBC Data Source Name. By
default a DSN of POLITE is created upon installation.
HTH,
