Hi we're running Oracle 8 on unix AIX.
When I try to connect to dba studio on my windows xp pro machine I have a problem.
Connecting as sys with SYSOPER works, however when I select SYSDBA
this produces the following error:
ORA-01031: insufficient privileges
This is really confusing me as I've read SYSOPER and SYSOPER are both just privileges which by default should be granted to the sys account. Also I have checked and the sys account is assigned to the dba group on our unix box. I don't understand how one works but not the other. Any ideas?
I can provide more detailed information if required.
