Can Oracle 10g connect to Oracle 8i ?

I am using a beta copy of Oracle 10g.
I am able to create database and use SQL*Plus to connect to the 10g instance.
I can use SQL*Plus 10g to connect to Oracle 9i instances.
However I am having problems getting the 10g instance to connect to 8i instance.

Does anyone know if Oracle 10g can connect to Oracle 8i instances ?

Thanks
Babette
