RE: Re[2]: Preventing logins from applications

In oracle 8i, you may take a look at product_profile table. You can prevent users from using sqlplus by adding the following in this table:

INSERT INTO Product_profile (product, userid, attribute, char_value) VALUES ('SQL*Plus','AMAR','SELECT','DISABLED');

Dig into this, you may be able to prevent other apps from accessing accordingly.

Perhaps a tack that explains to management the threat (real or imagined) of un-authorized program access. Couch it in a dollars-lost-from-fixing-problems sense. This usually gets their attention.

Charlie,

    That's all well and good, my try at it was on V7, but in my case the users
revolted to upper management.  And you know where the manure landed!!!

This can be accomplished by creating a login trigger that checks the "PROGRAM" name within V$SESSION. You can create a table that contains whitelisted program names & simply terminate any session that uses a program that does not exist within your authorized list of programs.
