Re: orapwd utility

ORAPWD utility is used to create password file for verification of dba users through password file.
when u create pasword file through it, dba users INTERNAL an SYS are automatically added and verified through this file.

similarly when u grant SYSDBA to any user, it is also added to this file. but this needs remote_login_passwordfile parameter to be set as EXCLUSIVE.

hope this helps..
