If you cannot upgrade your Forms modules, then you can try your luck using theSQLNET.ALLOWED_LOGON_VERSION_SERVER parameter:

https://docs.oracle.com/en/database/oracle/oracle-database/19/netrf/parameters-for-the-sqlnet.ora.html#GUID-1FA9D26C-4D97-4D1C-AB47-1EC234D924AA

However I have never used this parameter myself, so I cannot advise you on its correct use.

It's time to upgrade your 20+ year old version of Forms to a new version. If you want to use a new DB, a new OS, or a new anything, you need to upgrade. Trying to use old and obsolete software versions against or on top of modern versions of its dependencies is extremely risky and something I would not do with production data. I especially would not do it with mission critical applications.
