Hi,
   IIRC I had the same problem and it was a client issue.
I was using a tnsnames.ora entry with 2 IP addresses, when the client
load balancer put me on a busy node the server tried to redirect me on
the other one. It was doing so returning the host name of the other
node. That network name was unknow in my PC so I was getting the same
error you are facing. Since the db was at a customer site and was not
listed by our internal dns the simplest solution was to add the
hostnames to my hosts file.
hope it helps,
    Giovanni
