Hi,
I justed install oracle 8.1.5 enterprise on my win2000 machine. But It didn't ask me to set any administrator password. Any one knows how can I set an admin account that has all privilege.

My friend told me to use scott / tiger to login to SQL*Plus. Is this the default account whenever I create a new DB? Does scott / tiger has all the admin privilege? When I login, is the host string is same as SID?

I had create another DB and it show 3 accounts. What's the difference?

INTERNAL : oracle
SYS : change_on_install
SYSTEM : manager

When I take a look what's inside the database. It has many tables that I don't need. Any way I can create a DB without any tables in it, just like mySQL? Can I delete those tables? When I type:

SQL> select table_name from all_tables;
TABLE_NAME



DUAL
SYSTEM_PRIVILEGE_MAP
TABLE_PRIVILEGE_MAP
STMT_AUDIT_OPTION_MAP
AUDIT_ACTIONS
PSTUBTBL
DEF$_TEMP$LOB
DEPT
