Yes, that's correct. That is what the error message says. Anyone have any idea why it's trying to use LDAP to resolve the database link? I thought with my sqlnet.ora file set to use tnsnames.ora I'd be using my local files to resolve the service name. Any suggestions as to why it's trying to use LDAP are welcome.

Looks like are trying to resolve service name using LDAP naming .

I've recently inherited an Oracle 8.1.6 system and was just trying to setup a database link between two instances. I've granted the "create database link" priv to the user account and can successfully create the link but when I try to do a "select from table_name_at_linked_db;" I get the following error:

ERROR at line 1:
ORA-28030: Server encountered problems accessing LDAP directory service

Earlier I had a TNS error and found that my tnsnames.ora file was missing one of my instances. I fixed that problem and tnsping now responds correctly but I'm still getting the error listed on the subject line. My sqlnet.ora file contains "NAMES.DIRECTORY_PATH= (TNSNAMES)" so everything should be set to use my local tnsnames.ora file. I've been going through Oracle Net 8 documentation but still haven't found anything. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks..! .
