Connect to an instance on Solaris

[rati]

Hi All,

I have two machines, one Solaris and another Linux.
On my Linux machine , i have Oracle10g installed and have one instance(say firstInst).
I have Oracle 10g installed on Solaris also.
When i try to connect to this firstInst, from Solaris , i get error like

*sqlplus sys/sys as sysdba

ORA-01031: insufficient privileges*

When i try connecting to this instance from TOAD(Windows), i am able to connect successfully, which means that the instance is created properly.
I have updated the tnsnames.ora file on Solaris Oracle with my instance details.
Is there something else i need to do for making the connection.

Thanks.

This error you got:

sqlplus sys/sys as sysdba ORA-01031: insufficient privileges
