Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Offline doubt - Password checking in Oracle..
Hi Gurus,
I am working on a Sybase to Oracle migration project where i need to
write a function which accepts username , old password and new password
as parameters and modifies the account(Oracle Schema ) with the new
password.
If the password is correct, then only password modification should take
place.
Now, my question is :
How to validate the user given password as correct or not? (becos Oracle stores password by encrypting it!).
Any suggestions will be of great help to me.
TIA,
Arul.
