I believe it needs TNSADMIN files as well to find out where the listener is (I
could be wrong).
Try copying your listener.ora and tnsnames.ora files over and set TNS_ADMIN to
point to the directory you put them in before trying to run the program again.
I've never tried this myself (remote access without a local server), but I
think ORA-12545 is a 'could not resolve TNS name error'.
