My name is Gaurav. I'm a student & studying DBMS.
I have a standalone PC. I'm the only user that uses the PC.
I have a dual boot system comprising of Windows 98 SE on volume C:\ & Windows XP SP1 on volume D:\. I have set 1 GB as size of virtual memory on volume G:\ for both the OS's.
Here is my computers configuration:
Operating System: Windows 98 SE (build 4.10.2222)
Intel Pentium III 533 megahertz Processor
32 kilobyte primary memory cache
256 kilobyte secondary memory cache
Main Circuit Board: i440BX-SMC60X
Bus Clock: 133 megahertz
BIOS: Award Software International, Inc. 6.00 PG 11/10/2000
Drives:
SAMSUNG CD-ROM SC-152B
Generic floppy disk drive (3.5")
SAMSUNG SP0802N [Hard drive] (80.06 GB)
c: (on drive 0) 9.99 GB
d: (on drive 0) 14.99 GB
e: (on drive 0) 24.99 GB
f: (on drive 0) 24.99 GB
g: (on drive 0) 5.03 GB
128 MB SDRAM @ 100 MHZ
Cirrus Logic 5434 PCI [Display adapter]
Samsung Samtron 55v [Monitor]
Creative Vibra 128 Sound Card
56000bps External Fax Voice Modem
American Power Conversion USB UPS
Standard 101/102-Key or Microsoft Natural PS/2 Keyboard
Logitech Wheelmouse PS/2

I recently did a typical installation of Oracle8i Enterprise Edition on Windows 98 SE.
After the installation, Universal Installer automatically ran Net8 Easy Config. I didn't know what do in it, so I cancelled it.
The Universal Installer also automatically set up my autoexec.bat file with following line:
SET Path=c:\Oracle\Ora81\bin;"C:\PROGRAM FILES\ORACLE\JRE\1.1.7\BIN";
The problem is that when I run SQL *PLUS, it asks me to enter username, password & host string. I enter SCOTT as username, TIGER as password, but I don't know what to enter in "host string". When I enter username, password but no value for host string, it gives me the following error:
ERROR:
ORA-12560: TNSrotocol adapter error
I'm unable to work on SQL *PLUS due to this problem.
Kindly tell me how can I access SQL *PLUS, what should I enter in host string. If it has anything to do with Net8 Easy Config (that I cancelled), then kindly tell me how should I configure it.
