Re: Linking IP address to Oracle process

At the client, there should be a file called ORACLE.INI. Edit ORACLE.INI and add the following line under Oracle section

USERNAME=abcd

<abcd> is just any name you can supply with. This you can query through v$session. The column name is OSUSER.

If you enter the IP address of each PC against the USERNAME, then from V$SESION you can issue the following query.

select sid, serial#, username, osuser
FROM V$SESSION You will know the Oracle userid and the IP address from where the process is being executed.

We are going to do this in our project.

Hope this info is of some use to you.
