Oracle Connection String for ODP.NET with LDAP name

Question

I'm using the current version of ODP.NET and trying to connect to an Oracle Server using an LDAP name. I tried the basic string:

Data Source=ServerName;User Id=RemovedUserId;Password=RemovedPwd;

The connection attempt just times out with the following error:

ORA-12170: TNS:Connect timeout occurred

I can connect with via TOAD with using the same LDAP, User ID and Password from the same box.

Do I need use something different than "Data Source" or do I need to add an LDAP prefix to the server name?

Answer 1

Figured it out, I needed to find the fully qualified name in my case it was in the following format: server.domain/instance

Still not sure how TOAD resolves it with just the instance name.
