A few questions
1.) Is it a RAC database? RAC dbs often have config env variables set to
tell it where to find the TNSNAMES.ORA (TNS_ADMIN variable) - make sure
that its set correctly if its RAC
srvctl getenv database -d <db name>
2.) Make sure sqlplus from primary to standby works using "sys@dbname as
sysdba"
3.) Make sure md5sum reports the same value for the password file on both
primary and standby
4.) Make sure sqlnet.ora files are the same on both primary & standby as
far as encryption requirements

We've had this problem many times and usually its something to do with the
password file. We know that is ok because we can connect to the the
databases using /@dbname
Anyone got any good ideas on solving this?
