I'm wondering if just using the username@SIDSTRING would have worked without TWO_TASK being set? It did for me on Solaris Sparc. If TNS_ADMIN or ORACLE_HOME is set correctly, it should lookup SIDSTRING in tnsnames.ora for connection info.

For some strange reason, the EZconnect format didn't work, so I had to specify the fully qualified connection string, but that got me through.
