    sqlplus 10g and OS X

    Hi,

    I'm having problems using sqlplus on OS X. I'm trying to connect to my
    college's server. They supplied the tnsnames.ora. If I run 10g client
    in Windows (via VirtualPC on the Mac, very slow) I can connect fine. In
    OS X using sqlplus I get:

    ./sqlplus mylogin/mypass@grok

    SQL*Plus: Release 10.1.0.3.0 - Production on Wed Feb 16 22:59:08 2005

    ERROR:
    ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified


    Enter user-name:

    I have the following env variables set:

    echo $ORACLE_HOME
    /Applications/oracle/product/10.1.0/client_1

    echo $TNS_ADMIN
    /Applications/oracle/product/10.1.0/client_1/network/admin

    And my tnsnames.ora file is in the above folder.

    tnsping produces the following:

    ./tnsping grok

    Used parameter files:
    /Applications/oracle/product/10.1.0/client_1/network/admin/sqlnet.ora


    Used TNSNAMES adapter to resolve the alias
    )SERVICE_NAME = grok)= TCP)(HOST = minerva.humber. ca)(PORT = 1521))
    OK (110 msec)

    I'm very new to Oracle, but not to Linux/Unix. Any help/suggestions
    would be appreciated.

    Thanks,
    Doug
