Hi,
I have an Oracle7 server running on a SunSparc 10, and the client software runs on PCs & Macs (Oracle Forms & Databrowser). Now, the problem is that I would like to restrict access to the database through forms & browser only, and not allow the users to directly work on the database using other Oracle tools, like, Sqlplus, etc. Is there some way of restricting the tools that a user can use to connect to the server (by setting some entries in a table at the server, or something like that) ? The reason this is required to be done is that we need an additional level of security in the system (in addition to the role mechanism), since this is a medical system & lot of legal issues are involved.
Thanks in advance,
