Try the following in your'e init.ora
os_authent_prefix = "OPS$"
or
os_authent_prefix = "ops$"
or if your'e feelling bold and aren't worried about user passwords being fried try this...
os_authent_prefix = ""
in you're init.ora....... then update the user$ table and strip all the OPS$s off the usernames... remember to reset sys, system and other passwords you care about because all the passwords will be fRiEd.
I have done the above on VMS... should work on Unix.. but no warranties express or implied.
