RE: changing the internal password

Obsviously you are using NT and probable 8i. In this case, only with renmark the line:
SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES= (NTS), Oracle will prompt you to enter a password. That it'll be the one created with oradim or if you use password file: orapwd, that one. Therefore, you won't succed if you enter any character as you are "succeding" now. You must enter the correct password.

There are several scenarios in Unix that Oracle asks you for a password. However, the most frequent one is when you have the sqlnet.authentication_services without none or without renmark and you didn't install Advance Security Option. Other one is when you set TWO_TASK env.

Regards.
