I am attempting to enable OS Authentication for a few selected users and
am having difficulties.
I am running Oracle 7.3.4 on AIX 4.1.5.
I've set the OS Auth prefix variable (I forget the exact var name at the
moment but I pulled it out of the docs - even used cut and paste so I
know it's not spelled wrong) in the init.ora for that instance. I took
the standard "OPS$". I restarted the instance and added user "OPS$user"
identified by external. Then, logged into the AIX as user "user", I
tried to log into SQL*Plus (locally via telnet, not from client) like
this... "sqlplus /" It denied access as invalid username and password.
What am I missing here?
Thanks in advance!
