Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: OUTLN Mystery
As a matter of course I change the passwords on the following:
OUTLN
CTXSYS
DBSNMP
SYS
SYSTEM
the only one that has implications that I know of is changing DBSNMP... if
you use Intelligent Agents you have to set up a special password file on
disk with the new password... see Kevin Loney's website (www.kevinloney.com)
for the presentation he did on security -- he has the specifics on what to
change in there.
