What a load of rubbish

Its none of Oracle's business how you define your users.

Perhaps Oracle knows that there are a lot of apps out there with lots of separate users already defined (so they have decided to change their licencing model to 'catch them' between the 'rock' of the unlimited user licence option and the 'hard place' of the named user licence option).

If your point was valid, can you please point out to me the mechanisms Oracle is implementing to make sure that every user account on the server maps to an existing real-live person? e.g. requirements to send photos / names / addresses / birth certificates / company payroll records / forms registering users for the system / favourite colours / an updated list of employees leaving and joining an enterprise to Oracle.

Don't be so blooming daft.

If you need to audit users, you create user accounts. But you pay big money to Oracle for the privilge. Received on Thu Mar 09 2000 - 00:00:00 CST
