  sqlplus "/ as sysdba"
  I suspect the /
  indicates current OS user and if you belong to the SYSDBA or SYSOPER groups   then you will be connected. SYS is probably not a member of these   groups.
  I haven't tested
  this.

    Hi!
    I have a question concerning "connect sys as sydba" on     9i.
    When I open sqlplus and connect as sysdba (I'm logged in as     the Unix oracle user):
    sqlplus "sys as sysdba"
    Oracle asks for a password. Even if I type in the wrong     password, I am connected to Oracle. So does Oracle just use the OS     authentication (like connect internal did on 8i)?     But why is Oracle asking for a password in the first place     then? Any ideas?
    This is 9.0.1 on Sun Solaris.
