Darn! I should have read this till the end of the page, when Niall sent it yesterday. Apologies.

Apologies revisited. I should have read the long installation doc rather than the short one. It was a naming problem (haven't reached that chapter in my readings yet 8-). Now I give on the command line "sqlplus uname/passwd_at_DB" and works (haven't touched tnsnames.ora).
Still I got an error:
ORA-12705: invalid or unknown NLS parameter value specified

Fixed it by setting env. variable NLS_LANG=American_America.WE8ISO8859P1

Now the sqlplus client is running (at least I authenticate).

Thanks all.
