It was probably configured not to permit remote access. You don't need
sqlnet.ora, but it's useful if you want to use authentication (for
example, on an NT network).

I am new to Oracle and have been trying to connect to the database
remotely.
I finally am able to connect; however, I had to delete SQLNet.ora. Does
anybody know if this will hurt anything?
Thanks,
