Nikhil,
Check the global_names parameter value in your init.ora file. It is probably set to TRUE. If so then the problem is with the name you gave for the link. If this is the case then you will have to create the dblink with the same name as the Target DB.
Solution:
1. Set this Parameter to FALSE. now you can use any name for your dblink.
OR
2. If you don't want to or can't change the parameter in the Init.ora file, then name the DBLink the same as your target DB. If you are identifying you DB by domain(ex: PROD1.MyCo.US.COM ), Then your dblink name should include the domain name also.

Do you have an entry "test" in your tnsnames.ora on the database-server ? If "test" is only an entry in your local tnsnames.ora on your client, then the database-link can't work !
