Start Oracle Database Automatically

I have an Oracle8i for windows installed on windows 2000 server. The
former DBA left, and I'm trying to solve something. Here is my
problem:


The previous DBA has setup the database to start ONLY when I login to
the Win2K server using a local user name and password for that server.
In other words, I have to login physically to the server using local
user name: "username" and password: "password", then I have to start
the database manually going into command line and connecting to the
server manager and issue the "STARTUP" command.
I'm trying to change the password for the local NT user to something
else. I changed the password, and I also updated the password for all
Oracle services in the windows services tool, rebooted the machine,
but was unable to start the Oracle database through the command line.
It seems to me that the NT password was placed some where else where
the Oracle database is looking at.



What I'm looking for is how to successfully change the password, and
also automate the database startup to start as soon as the machine is
rebooted, so I don't have to go to the command line each time and
start the database.



Thanks
