I found a document where it says there I have to change the passwords after installation (get asked for the sys password and so) but I wasn't asked for that. With 'doesn't work' I meant that I cannont login as usual with Oracle 8i - the reason is the password I get asked every time the databses starts and I don't know which password I should use or how I can manually change it (in which file).

The answer is quite simple. What password would you need during startup? The internal password. What is the default internal password? The name of the product
