Re: can't connect to the database by using Sqlplus

user "oralab" is a member of group "dba"

once I login in the Unix with any users belong to group dba, I simply key in
 "sqlplus [username] / [passwd] @ [the service name of an already-running DB] " to connect the database
for example, ksh> sqlplus abc/abc_at_test

since i didn't config the tnsname.ora for database "lab" (ORACLE_SID),
>sqlplus sys/admin_at_lab wouldn't work.

it should work if the ORACLE_SID is already set to "lab" in user oralab's profile

I've tried to log in the Unix with user "oracle", and set ORACLE_SID into lab
sqlplus worked find,
I still don't know what's wrong with it.

Thank you.
