Re: OS Authentication and Usernames

Hi Tim,
theres another parameter which is called OS_AUTH_PREFIX or so. This parameter is normally OPS$. The user you want to create is called then
OPS$anything...
create user "OPS$Joe Blow" identified externally .

This should work but I'm not shure if you can use blanks in usernames?

Cheers
Eric Euerlings
