Er guys, SqlPlus 3.3.4.0.0? Isn't this from the days of Oracle 7?
I would think we would need to know more about your config before we could really help!
client / server, versions of oracle and client, where components are installed etc.
Your error suggests that the oracle client components are not installed / not in the path / wrong oracle_home selected - to name but a few possibilities!
