Installing Oracle XE on a 64bit system - Free Bear to the firstperson who correctly solves my problem!

[JD Austin]

Likely you'll only be able to connect to it from it.
Do you have vncserver installed?
The Oracle XE installs items in the menus.
You ran the part after the initial install from root right?
I haven't tried Godaddy's virtual dedicated server though, it could be 
something with it's environment.
Try tnspinging it from another oracle instance to see if you can connect 
to it's listener.
Make sure if you have selinux installed that you have it's ports open.
Have you tried connecting to it from web ie : http://ipaddress:8080/apex/
