I have google to death and cannot figure out how to connect to another user 
using proxy authentication from an os authenticated user.

Does anyone know if this is even possible?

TIA

For example: proxyauth is a database user with password authentication

This work.
connect proxyauth[scott]/proxyauthpassword


For example: os$oracle is an OS authenticated database user

This does not work.
connect os$oracle[scott]

Enter password:
ERROR:
ORA-01005: null password given; logon denied
