Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Oracle users and password changes
My thoughts originally were to use an email notification sending mail from within Oracle, with a link to a webpage in the email and then they could put in old password and new password...if old password compare is successful, let them change it to a new one. I haven't thought thru that whole process though and thought setting this up in multiple instances would be time consuming and a lot of maintenance. Would something like this work?

Yes, however, the notification process for those using ODBC access through
non-native Oracle app is difficult. I am looking for a solution to this as
well.
