SSL without certificates in 8i?

Hello list,
we try to configure an Oracle 8i database for SSL without certificates (without
wallets - neither server authentication nor client authentication). The 8i
Oracle Advanced Security Administrator's Guide
states that it also supports this authentication mode:
"Neither the client nor the server authenticates itself to the other, thus
using the SSL encryption
feature by itself "
But the doc then describes only how to configure SSL with wallets.
So far we added a listener.ora entry for a tcps connection and added an
tnsnames.ora entry for that service. And we added a
SQLNET.CLIENT_AUTHENTICATION=FALSE to sqlnet.ora.
But we still get the error ORA-28759 Failed to open file - which is generated
by an attempt to open a wallet which does not exist.
It seems we have to disable the server authentication somehow. Any ideas for
that?
