The errors you listed appear to be related to the SQLNET.AUTHENTICATIO_.SERVICES in your SQLNET.ORA File.

The workaround is:
Remove the line

sqlnet.authentication_services=(NTS) from the ORACLE_HOME\network\admin\sqlnet.ora file on the server or set line to sqlnet.authentication_services=(NONE)

I hope this helps.
