Have you successfully created and tested a connection within the Net8 Oracle
client? You'll need to do that first, or add the client entry directly into
your tnsnames.ora file. Here's a sample tnsnames.ora file:

# TNSNAMES.ORA Configuration
File:/opt/u01/app/oracle/product/8.1.5/network/ad
min/tnsnames.ora
# Generated by Oracle Net8 Assistant

ORMAST =
  (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
      (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = myoradb)(PORT = 1521))
    )
    (CONNECT_DATA =
      (SERVICE_NAME = ormast.myoradb.figleaf.com)
    )
  )
