ERROR:
ORA-12504: TNS:listener was not given the SERVICE_NAME in CONNECT_DATA

It's because Oracle will translate service_name as user password.
The solution is using double quote and escape character for connect strings:

[[email protected]:/home/oracle]$ sqlplus [email protected]\"192.168.56.101:1522/linora\" as sysdba
