Hello

I have a question!!!
I'm using Oracle8i, Release 8.1.5, Windows NT 4.0 SP5, and have a problem with Windows NT Authentication.

I am a Windows NT Administrator and automatic OS Database Administrators - Computer but
I can`t access my Databases.

According to the Oracle Documentation, OS Database Administrators - Computer are
"Windows NT users who can access all database instances on a single computer with SYSDBA privileges and without being prompted for a password."

I´ve set the INIT.ORA parameter OS_ROLES to TRUE and restarted the Oracle database,
but I can´t access the database as a Windows NT Administrator.

Have I forgotten anything???
I'd like to be able to access Oracle automatically with Windows NT Authentication.

Thank you very much in advance!
