check_oracle should work with local and remote hosts. All you need on the 
local system are the Oracle client installation - with tnsping, namsectl, 
sqlplus.

The most important part of the is plugin is making sure ORACLE_HOME as an 
environment var is set for Nagios


--tns does a "tnsping host" which you result in either an OK or a CRITICAL 
if a listner is not present. Works with remote or local hosts.
