Message-Id: <10577.113592@fatcity.com> From: ddorr.cs@clearstream.com Date: Wed, 2 Aug 2000 15:57:59 +0200 Subject: RE: orapwd question What's the problem with having your password files in the same dir ? I have up to 4 databases sharing the same ORACLE_HOME, thus having their password files in the same dbs directory. They have different names anyway : orapw$ORACLE_SID. The password file must reside in $ORACLE_HOME/dbs : if you want to change this, you must have <> ORACLE_HOMEs for your DBs, and that's not what you want ! > ---------- > From: ramon de los reyes[SMTP:amity308@bcd.weblinq.com] > Reply To: ORACLE-L@fatcity.com > Sent: Wednesday, August 02, 2000 14:53 > To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L > Subject: orapwd question > > good day all, > > I have 2 instances.
