I prefer to do both.&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT color=#113311&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;1.   Login to your oracle account.&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT color=#113311&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;2.   set ORACLE_SID=SID&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT color=#113311&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;3.   set LOCAL=SID&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT color=#113311&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;4.   check your $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin/sqlnet.ora file for any reference to EZCONNECT; if you have it remove it.&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT color=#3333dd&gt;This should fix your problem.   Remember the "set" command is depending on what shell you are using.  If you are using korn shell replace the set with "export"   (i.e  export ORACLE_SID=SID )&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT color=#3333dd&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt; &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT color=#3333dd&gt;I updated my sqlnet.ora file by taking out the EZCONNECT part out.  Here is a diff between my original sqlnet.ora file and the new one:&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT color=#113311&gt;/u01/oracle/product/10.2.0.4/network/admin &amp;gt;diff sqlnet.ora.original.062309 sqlnet.ora&lt;BR&gt;4c4&lt;BR&gt;&amp;lt; NAMES.DIRECTORY_PATH= (LDAP, TNSNAMES, &lt;STRONG&gt;EZCONNECT&lt;/STRONG&gt;)&lt;BR&gt;---&lt;BR&gt;&amp;gt; NAMES.DIRECTORY_PATH= (LDAP, TNSNAMES)&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT color=#3333dd&gt;Hope this helps.&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT color=#3333dd&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt; &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT color=#3333dd&gt;Thanks,&lt;/FONT&gt;</description><pubDate>Tue, 23 Jun 2009 17:07:40 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>Admin</dc:creator></item><item><title>ORA-12560: TNS protocol adapter error ora error</title><link>http://www.franklinfaces.com/Topic136-55-1.aspx</link><description>&lt;FONT color=#3333dd&gt;Hi,&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT color=#3333dd&gt;When i'm trying to sqlplus '/ as sysdba' , i'm getting the following ora error message:&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT color=#115555&gt;# sqlplus '/ as sysdba'&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT color=#113333&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;SQL*Plus: Release 9.2.0.7.0 - Production &lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Copyright (c) 1982, 2002, Oracle Corporation.
