You can live without a sqlnet.ora file, but it's handy to have it there, if for example you want to turn on tracing, or set some parameters to "manage" your network connection.
What kind of errors were you getting when the file was present?
Would those errors disappear if you put this line
sqlnet.authentication_services = (NONE)
in the sqlnet.ora configuration file?
