tnsping from 10.2 works against 11.2 listener, but tnsping from 11.1 and 11.2 does not

Hi everyone,

I have a 11.2 server and 11.2, 11.1 and 10.2 clients, all on the same machine, on Windows 7.

TNS Listener 11.2 is running.

The problem is that tnsping from the 10.2 client works, while calling tnsping from the 11.2 and 11.1 clients produces the error "TNS-12541: TNS:no listener"
