Wow....ok, interesting timing here.....
I was just reading the 10gR2 AS manual on identity management, and came
across a section titled "Integrating with Windows User Provisioning"
when your message landed in my mailbox.....;-)
Really, the link is right here:

eploy.htm#sthref114
No, that doesn't help you, cause you're trying to do it without the AS
suite, right?
But, it got me thinking....CAN it be done without OID and Identity
Management and the huge infrastructure (and licensing) that implies....?
Then I found an Oracle whitepaper from 2004....a relevant quote is here:
"ACTIVE DIRECTORY INTEGRATION WITH ORACLE DATABASE
Oracle 9i Database and Oracle Database 10g directly integrate with
Active Directory through support of single sign-on and integrated user
provisioning. These features facilitate integrated user provisioning.
These features facilitate integrated Oracle database and Active
Directory user access and administration, while maintaining
enterprise-scale security. Because these database features integrate
directly with Active Directory, they do not require Oracle Internet
Directory."
(Empahasis is mine.)
The URL to the complete whitepaper is:

Hope that helps,

Subject: user authentication without OID
Win2K domain
WinXP clients
AIX5.2, Oracle 9i server
Good morning all,
We are looking for a solution which will allow us to let users
authenticate their database connections using their Windows logon
credentials and Active Directory. We do not use OAS therefore do not
have OID. Apparently this is the only easy way to do this according to
Oracle Support and searches thru Metalink. I was hoping that someone
has an easy (read cheap) solution that we can adapt to our needs. Using
Active Directory is not a must, but we do own it.
The problem is that users have to change their login passwords in too
many places, We have to be IRS security compliant so we cannot see the
passwords when they forget them, and once in awhile they do forget.;-))
Thanks in advance,
Ruth
