Cant remember the specifics, but we had some dramas with "local" wallets
(for connecting to the database) on windows machines when things would
changes (like IP address etc). Also, services running as "Local System"
had dramas.

My memory is a bit fuzzy on this, it was a fair while back, but we did end
up reverting to "non-local" wallets on impacted machines.

Just to circle back on this topic.

I have been creating "local" wallets and using them on remote machines
just fine. I did find one peculiarity that I filed as a bug, though. Since
I was testing with "simple" passwords, I discovered that the "alter system"
way of creating a key has a completely different password complexity check
than does orapki. For instance,

this will work:
alter system set encryption key identified by ora11g;

this will not:
orapki wallet create -wallet $ORACLE_BASE/admin/$ORACLE_SID/wallet
-auto_login_local -pwd ora11g

PKI-01002: Invalid password:Passwords must have a minimum length of eight
characters and contain alphabetic characters combined with numbers or
special characters.


Obviously, not a big deal, just an annoyance. :)

I am just trying to find my way. :) I do not yet know the difference
between
a "regular auto login wallet" and a "local wallet". I assume the former
is
an SSO and the latter a PK1, but what makes it "local" vs not local?

pre-11gR2 style auto login:
- orapki wallet create -auto_login

11gR2 *local* auto login:
- orapki wallet create -auto_login_local
