I had such a problem with a SunScreen firewall. Snooping the
traffic from server and client I got the client making 2 tcp
connections.
The first appears to be a set-up connection; during the second
there will be actual data exchange.
Well in the first connection Oracle passes to the client the
'hostname' (yes the hostname itself) of server machine and a
'tcp_port' (in that case it was 45789-45800).
The client will then terminate the first connection and try
to establish the second tcp connection to 'hostname' and 'tcp_port'
and then exchange data or whatever.
Check that client knows your oracle server name as oracle
knows itself.
That's what I did to fix-up things :)
