WELCOME BACK BAMBI!!!
Great to see you back.
What version of Oracle and OEM are you dealing with? Don't know if you
have MetaStink access, but I found this out there. Hope it might be helpful.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE: VTK-1000 Error
=====================================
Goal: How to troubleshoot a VTK-1000 error.
Fact: Oracle Enterprise Manager
Change: NOTE ROLE:
The Enterprise Manager (EM) Console connects to a middle-tier service
called the
Management Server (OMS). If this connection attempt fails for any
reason, the
EM Client will receive the error:
VTK-1000: Unable to connect to Management Server <Name>
Please verify that you have entered the correct name and
status of the Oracle Management Server
OK
Fix: The VTK-1000 error can occur due to problems with the EM Client
setup
or because the Management Server is not started. To troubleshoot the
error,
begin at the EM Client:
EM Client:
1. Verify the Management Server hostname listed in the EM Console
logon window
is the correct hostname.
For additional information, see [NOTE:1067911.6]
2. Verify the Management Server hostname is reachable through TCP/IP
from the
EM Client system.
For additional information, see [NOTE:1077548.6]
3. Verify the EM Console and Management Server are at the same patch
level.
Next, go to the Management Server:
4. Verify the Management Server is started.
For additional information, see:
[NOTE:107235.1] How To Start A Management Server From A Dos Prompt
on NT
[NOTE:117193.1] How To Start A Management Server Running DHCP
[NOTE:109494.1] How To Start A Management Server On Unix
If the Management Server will not start, turn on OMS logging and
look in
the oms log file for possible failure messages.
NOTE: For instructions on how to log the OMS startup process, see
Additional Troubleshooting hints listed below.
If the EM client is setup correctly, check the Management Server:
See [NOTE:133799.1] Troubleshooting Guide: How to Troubleshoot Problems
starting
the Management Server.
Additional Troubleshooting
--------------------------
If the solutions listed above do not resolve the VTK-1000, additional
debugging
information must be captured.
1. To Trace the EM Console, see [NOTE:106074.1].
2. To Trace the OMS, see [NOTE:68741.1].
Additional debugging information can also be found in [NOTE:69522.1].

Enterprise Manger:
> Greetings, Fellow OraHax! Long time no see. I've been off doing
interesting things for awhile and have been pretty quiet. I've got a
problem and I'm pretty embarrassed by it. Let me write embedded SQL/Korn
shell or do funky DBA things all day but don't make me use a GUI! But,
well, we do what we have to.
> Anyway, I have Enterprise Manager running on a remote NT box. I have
created a repository owner (entmgr) and made sure that the service is
running. If I try going into enterprise manager with just the SID, I get
VTK-1000. If I try to log in specifying the machine name (which I tried on
a lark... it doesn't make sense to me to specify the machine name), I get
"invalid login credential supplied".
