Hi all:

How can I set up so that user can enter a null password when logging in from
one of the Oracle tools ?  Currently, they are using / to gain access to the
server from the unix prompt.  From what I understand, such setup uses
authentication from unix account.  What setup must I go through in order to
allow user to log in to the server from client based tools in the same
fashion ?  Oracle won't accept blank in the password prompt.

Many thanks in advance.

Tram
