Yes you can use sqlnet 1.2 with os auth. Did you specify SQLNET_USER = name in the CONFIG.ORA or ORACLE.INI file? Otherwise oracle cannot tell the server who you are. Some versions of the sqlnet code (for v6) use a USER = name parameter instead; you can include them both if you wish.

Same answer. It doesn't matter what the transport method is (decnet or
tcp/ip) since it's the SqlNet protocol that transmits the authentication.

They will change a lot, on the server side; the good thing is that your client can still use sqlnet 1.2.
p.s., if you still have troubles, tell the net the specific ORA-number you are receiving. good luck!
