What about granting sysdba to the user? This has to be done explicitly! -----Original Message----- From: Daiminger, Helmut [mailto:HELMUT.DAIMINGER@xxxxxx] Sent: Thursday, February 05, 2004 4:35 AM To: 'oracle-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx' Subject: connect / as sysdba on 9i Hi! What parameters need to be set to allow connect / as sysdba on 9i? On my db this is disabled. Only "connect sys/pwd@database as sysdba" = works. Any ideas? This is 9.2 on HP-UX.
