Chris:
Do you have a DNS entry for the server name anywhere? Tnsping will read the tnsnames.ora file and then use the IP address in the entry to attempt to contact the server on the port mentioned. This should be 1521 unless you set up the server with a different port. Also the Listener process has to be running on the Oracle server or you will not connect.

It shows me the entry out of the TNSNAMES.ora file, and then hangs.
