Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> default setup passwords 8i
I've seen quite a few references to user/passwords like scott/tiger, system/manager, and internal/oracle in these postings over the past months. 8i ships with about a dozen default users(those I mentioned among them), most of which use the username as the default password. I'm about to change my default passwords. Are there any I should NOT change, and why not ? Also, several of these Oracle-created users do not have passwords which are the same as the username(like the aurora user). I know I don't need to know it's password to change it's password, but I don't understand the reason for making some default passwords different than usernames.
TIA
