Another way to get rid of this problem, i.e. allow you to connect internal without having to have a 
password:

If there is a sqlnet.ora file in your $TNS_ADMIN directory remove it or look for the line:
SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES = (NONE)
int the sqlnet.ora file

and replace it with:
SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES = (ALL)
