Then why didn't you copy the KeyFile?  It specifally says you need
to do that:

Well, at this point it's quite possible that you've destroyed your
KADB.  Or, your client may be looking at the wrong server (because
your Linux box isn't really in the same Cell as your Sun box, so it
doesn't have your Database files).  I don't know which is the real
case, and I have no more time to offer you free support of this
nature.  Perhaps someone else can help you.

Good Luck,
