to protect you oracle password you ops$ users. for a given OS user (say AAA) you define an oracle user ops$aaa. then from the OS prompt the user rnter by typing the command "sqlplus /".
this is the best way to protect your oracle passwords couse no-one knows the password (not even the user !!!) yoram Z. Received on Mon Apr 15 1996 - 00:00:00 CEST
