oracle_home=d:\oracle\ora92
oracle_sid=abc

The following is my sqlnet.ora

# SQLNET.ORA Network Configuration File: d:\oracle\ora92\network\admin\sqlnet.ora # Generated by Oracle configuration tools.

#SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES= (NTS) NAMES.DIRECTORY_PATH= (TNSNAMES, ONAMES, HOSTNAME) The following is the section from the tnsnames.ora

abc =
  (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
      (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = moon)(PORT = 1521)(queuesize = 25))

    )
    (CONNECT_DATA =

      (SERVER = DEDICATED)
      (SERVICE_NAME = abc)

    )
  )

No...This is not a multi Oracle home machine

Note : If I change the sqlnet.ora to the following

# SQLNET.ORA Network Configuration File: d:\oracle\ora92\network\admin\sqlnet.ora # Generated by Oracle configuration tools.

SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES= (NTS) NAMES.DIRECTORY_PATH= (TNSNAMES, ONAMES, HOSTNAME) I receive following error

Enter user-name: /as sysdba
ERROR:
ORA-12638: Credential retrieval failed

If I comment the line in the sqlnet.ora
#SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES= (NTS) I receive the following error

Enter user-name: /as sysdba
ERROR:
ORA-01031: insufficient privileges

If I change the line in sqlnet.ora
SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES= (NONE) I get the following error

Enter user-name: /as sysdba
ERROR:
ORA-01031: insufficient privileges Received on Tue Nov 28 2006 - 11:59:12 CST
