The name server resolves instance "handles" to the server hostname, SID, and protocol where the database with that handle resides. It has nothing to do with user authentication. If "dennis" is set for OS authentication in the database, and you are logged in as "dennis" on the client, you should be OK.

The quickest test, on the client run "sqlplus /_at_database_name" Received on Thu Nov 26 1998 - 00:00:00 CET
