Re: sqlplus /@dev.world in oracle 8.1.7.2.1 generates error..Please advise

Paul,Thanks for your suggestion...
I followed the installation instruction of Oracle clinical:

1. logon as administrator
2. create the OS USER rxcprod with certain advanced user rights
3. set the service starting properties
4. logoff administrator and logon as rxcprod
5. start PSUB and get the following error ERROR:Daemon error while connecting:/@dev.world ORa-01017 where dev.world is the connecting string.

Oracle clinical creates the Oracle user

           OPS$rxcprod as identified by externally

In my init.ora:
remote_os_authent = TRUE
os_authent_prex = OPS$
o7_dictionary_accessibility = TRUE

Oracle Clinical expects:
after logn as rxcprod as OS USER,
rxcprod should be able to access or connect to oracle database as "/@dev.world"....

Please advise as what to do next....
