I'm looking into using os_authentication for the purposes of running
cron jobs which run a sql script through sqlplus. When the appropriate
user invokes the shell script from the unix command prompt, the script
runs to completion with no errors. However, when the same shell is
invoked by the cron facility, I receive an invalid username/password
message. Any ideas as to the possible problem? Has anyone implemented
a similar setup?
Thanks for any help...
