I am attempting to connect to a database with RMAN. The recovery catalog is on a remote machine. The "spot" database is on the machine where I am typing the rman command. The user "rcvr" has been given SYSDBA privileges and has a password stored in an external password file created with orapwd.

Can anyone shed some light on why the second command below fails?

thanks in advance,
James
