Dumb question, but, are you sure you have the username and password correct in CFAdministrator. Also, do you have something like Oracle DBA Studio or Enterprise Manager that you can connect with? If so, the problem is with your CF Administrator settings. If not, then check the TNSNames.ora file. Also, are you trying to use ODBC or the Native Drivers. If you are using ODBC, be sure and use the "Microsoft ODBC for Oracle" drivers.
