Add the foreign host name to your local /etc/hosts file.

Dear List,
 I have 8.0.5.2.1(32bit) database on HP-UX 11.0 server.  I have a database link connecting to other database. I get following error
while trying to access objects thorough db link ( db link goes to 8.1.6.2.0
(64bit) database on HP-UX 11.0

" ORA-12545: Connect failed because target host or object does not exist "

There is work around to put IP address for this host in tnsnames.ora which fixes the problems. Is there any other good solution to this problem?  All your suggestions are always welcome.

Thank you
