Message: Hi

I am having problem with 4 of our databases (all on different servers) out of about 30 databases.

Basically, when i login as:
sqlplus / as sysdba

I get username or password unknow. I can login as sys, using the same password defined when I ran ORAPWD.

If I login using RMAN TARGET / causes rman to crash.

What am I missing on this server to allow me to login using / as sysdba - the database (as with all our other databases) is setup to allow NT Authentication, although this something different.

Many thanks

James

Message: Hi James,

I have some suggestions for you :
- check if you are member of ORACLE_DBA group for the server where the databases are located on, and then check sqlnet.ora file on the server side, if you have : SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES = (NTS).
- you have a parameter in init.ora file (remote_login_passwordfile=EXCLUSIVE)
Usually, this is far enough to connect / as sysdba. If you can't add any member to oracle_dba group, then put the sqlnet.ora parameter to none, and it should work as well.
Regards,
Joel

Message: Thanks Joel

I wasn't a member of ORA_DBA group.

Well, I was when I built the machine, but then our IT team (who know nothing about Oracle) took over server management and decided i didn't need to RDP to these machines so removed my account. When they recreated it, I wasn't put back into this group.

Thanks again

James
