Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.misc -> net8 assistant prevent removing service name/mlml
Hi,
I am using Oracle 8.0.5 on RedHat 6.0,
Oracle8 client on Windows 95,
I am also using Oracle Names.
How do I prevent people from using their Net8 Assistant
client to DELETE oracle names service names?
All they do is use NET8 Assistant, click on their
Oracle Names Server / Manage Data / Remove service name
and presto!, the service name is removed from the server.
No password is asked.
They can even stop the Oracle names server.
I tried almost everything, including adding
names.password=D4DF7931AB130E37
to names.ora in the server.
This will cause namesctl (in server) and namesctl80 (in client)
to ask for password, but not NET8 Assistant.
Also I dont understand the names.password parameter, now do I
generate the password text?
I have looked high and low for this solution. thx for yr help
Mike
