Security :: Remote Connection Using SYS
Jan 8, 2013
while testing SYS remote connection in our staging server. Executing the command below is OK:
sqlplus sys/<password>@sales as sysdba
While this is mind-boggling for me...
sqlplus sys@sales as sysdba
Enter password:
ERROR:
ORA-01017: Message 1017 not found; No message file for product=RDBMS,
facility=ORA
Enter user-name:
ERROR:
Error while trying to retrieve text for error ORA-01017
I entered the correct password.I've been simulating this for a couple of times, even tried the copy-and-paste method.

Just installed the new 2.0.8 version. Its been a while I am interested on using PM for our company.The problem I have is creating an Oracle DB connection. When I create a new Oracle DB connection, and test it, Steps 3 and 4 fail.What is strange is that I followed the following procedure in PM 1.9-825 and worked fine. I am wondering if something changed in the new PM 2.0.8 version (I noticed that php_oci8.dll was commented out in php.ini).
Oracle Version is 10GR2
PM installed on clean XP sp3
1. Got a new Windows XP SP3 PC
2. Installed PM 2.0.8
3. Edited php.ini and uncommented [PHP_OCI8] and extension=php_oci8.dll
4. Installed oracle instant client “instantclient-basic-win32-10.2.0.5” in c:oracle
5. Installed oracle instant client “instantclient-sqlplus-win32-10.2.0.4” in c:oracle
6. Added c:oracle in PATH environment variable
7. Created ORACLE_HOME = c:oracle environment variable
8. Added TNS_ADMIN = c: environment variable
9. Copied working tnsnames.ora file into c:
10. Rebooted.
-------------------------------------
1. Tried sqlplus connection to my oracle db and worked.
2. Launched PM
3. Created a new process
4. Created a new DB connection as follows:
a. Engine:Oracle
b. Server:192.168.xxx.xxx
c. Database name: my_name (where my_name appears in tns_names.ora)
d. Username:my_username
e. Password:my_password

Lost Windows password? Forgot Windows password? Your PC was hacked? Therefore, it is a basic step for every Windows users to enhance the security of Windows password. In the networks, it is found that a number of user's passwords are easy to guess. Only the smallest groups are the most security conscious and select passwords that are mixed lowercase and uppercase letters, numbers and punctuation to create cryptic passwords. Adopting strong password is one of the most effective ways to ensure system security. Here are several methods for you to enhance the security of your passwords in Windows 7/2000/XP/Vista and so on. You'd better remember the methods below unless you want to reset Windows password from time to time.
1. Is random password a great password?
A common myth is that totally random passwords like Ht3&e#L%5d@$B are the best passwords. This is not true. While they may be strong passwords, they are usually difficult to remember, slow to type, and sometimes vulnerable to attacks against the password generating algorithm. It is easy to create passwords that are strong but much easier to remember by using a few simple techniques. For example, consider the password "Luck-73@Better?". This password utilizes uppercase and lowercase letters, two numbers, and three symbols. The password is 15 characters long and can be memorized with very little effort. Moreover, this password can be typed very fast. The portion"Luck" and "Better" alternate between left and right-handed keys on the keyboard, improving speed, decreasing typos, and decreasing the chances of someone being able to discover your password by watching you.
2. Create the long Windows password
Although a password may eventually be discovered through some means, it is possible to create a password that cannot be cracked in any reasonable time. If a password is long enough, it will take so long or require so much processing power to crack it. That is essentially the same as being unbreakable (at least for most hackers).
3. Create the Windows password constantly?
This may be good advice for some high-risk passwords, but it is not the best policy for every user. It is frustrating for a user to have to constantly think of and remember new passwords every 30 days. It may be better to focus on stronger passwords and better user awareness rather than limiting password age. A more realistic time for the common user may be 90-120 days.
4. Write down Windows password in a proper place
Sometimes it is necessary for some users losing and forgetting complex passwords easily to write down them somewhere proper. However, it is important to educate users on how to write down passwords properly. Obviously, a sticky note on the monitor is not a good idea, but storing passwords in a safe or even a locked cabinet may be sufficient.
5. 14 characters is the optimal password length
Each character that you add to your password increases the protection. Your passwords should be 8 or more characters in length; 14 characters or longer is the Optimal Password Length. Many systems also support use of the space bar in passwords, so you can create a phrase made of many words. It is not easier to forget and lose, as well as longer than a simple password, and harder to guess.
6. Try not to use the same Windows password for all accounts
Some users always make the same passwords for every account to make it easy to remember. In that case, when any one of them lost, your other information protected by that password will be in danger as well. It is serious to use different passwords for different systems and accounts.
7. Do not use some common words that other users maybe guess
Most of users prefer to use some common words to remember easily, for example, login name, birth date, driver's license, passport number, pets' name and other words contained their personal information someone knows. In that case, your Windows system will not be safe anymore. Moreover, do remember not to use some words spelled backwards, abbreviations, sequences or repeated characters and adjacent letters, such as, asdfgh, 123456, 888888, abcdef and so on.
You can smoothly use your Windows now because the strong and powerful Windows password is created successfully, Certainly, I believe that many users lost Windows password and forgot Windows password, then you need have to reset Windows password or recover Windows password. It is a big problem for plenty of Windows users that how to reset Windows password. how to recover Windows password and they are puzzled by resetting windows password, for instance, reset Windows 7 password, recover password Windows XP, remove Windows Vista password and other operating systems after they create the password with complex letters, numbers and symbols. However, it is unnecessary to worry and it is said that things will eventually sort themselves out. There are many ways to reset forgotten Windows password, including use windows password reset disk and windows password reset software, like Super Windows Password Reset, a professional windows password reset software which could enable you to logon to Windows smoothly without reinstalling system.

In Sybase, my application was using system tables to perform application login security. Those tables obviously don't exist in Oracle. I am looking for ways to provide the following functionality in an Oracle world:
1. How to determine 'x' days of inactivity based on "last login date"?
2. How to determine when a new user logs in for the first time and force them to change their password?
3. If we need to reset a users password, how can we require the user to change their password?
4. Is there any other option other than storing a user-id/password in the application code for locking a user's account if their account needs to be locked due to inactivity?
5. In the USER_USERS view there is a status column. What the different status's can be?

We have eight servers. One of them is for centeral management. The other seven is for development and test databases. Every night, we start a process which exports database schemas (without data) into the centeral server. An example of the process we run is just like below:
CODEcd /data1/backup
mknod exp_pipe_oracle1 p
compress<exp_pipe_oracle1>dev.dmp.Z&
exp user/****@dev file=exp_pipe_oracle1 owner=schema1,schema2,schema3 statistics=none rows=n log=dev.log
As you can see, we use @dev to connect remote database. But dump file is created in local (centeral) server. We are planning to use datapump instead of classic export in future. But I couldn't find a solution, that could take a database export in a remote server and create dump file in local. I have looked at NETWORK_LINK parameter; but it doesn't seem to work for our case.
Is it possible to backup a remote database with datapump and make it create dumpfile in local? (Of course we can use some solutions such as NFS, but we really not prefer this; if datapump has ability to remotly backup.)

We have access to a remote Oracle database in Germany and need to insert selected data to our local Oracle database. Our problem is that we have to do several joins (7 tables) on the remote database as well as using one where clause (always the same: P.T_LIEF_LFNT_1='12803193').
Unfortunately we do not have rights to create a view on the remote database. Is there another way to send the entire query to the remote database for processing? Also, the query returns approximately 34,000 rows.
Here is our current query:
INSERT INTO PRIMUS(PARTNO,
SORT_FORMAT,
TP_WORKSPACE,

I have 2 database . One is production and other is Integration and I have one table "emp" which is on integration server and a synonym of that table with the same name"emp" on production. On production we have a proc in which we are using "emp", but some time our integration server goes down, so is there any way to ping the integration server inside the proc and if it returns success then we will execute the rest of code of proc , otherwise it will send a mail to us saying that integration server is down.

I have a simple script which fetch data from another SQL server database.
The remote SQL Server database is accessed by oracle thru gateway, and a simple DB link is made in local database to the remote oracle datbase (which actually access the MS SQL Server)
The SQL script empties all the data in local database, and fills it with the fresh data from MS SQL server.
Problem is sometimes SQL Server is down, and i lose all the data in local database. The script runs automatically as schedualed job. I want to make my script intelligent enough to terminate the script if the other database is down.

My Oracle DB 10g R2 running on AIX 5.3 OS. When I am shutting down the oracle I see that it is waiting for complete the active calls and I determined that these active calls/processes are from remote machines.
When I try to run this ps -ef as shown below, it shown me number of oracle process with LOCAL=NO
/home/oracle> ps -ef | grep 91334
oracle 85210 87320 0 12:47:56 pts/35 0:00 grep 91334
oracle 91334 1 0 12:45:11 - 0:00 oracleIDB (LOCAL=NO)
What are the possible scenarios for this LOCAL=NO? How do I find that this process is from which machine or IP address?

When I try to remotely connect to an Oracle schema using SQLplus, I consistantly get this error:
ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor
Yet I can connect to the same machine, from my own machine just fine using SQLDeveloper.Here are the details I have collected so far
- I am using the instantclient for OS X
- export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/Users/jeff/instantclient
- export ORACLE_HOME=/Users/jeff/instantclient
- export TNS_ADMIN=/Users/jeff/instantclient/tns
The command line i ran : ./sqlplus seam_classoft/seam_classoft@//oracle11gtest.terida.net:1521/orcl
Its behind a VPN, so I'm not worried about posting my info.
My /Users/jeff/instantclient/tns/tnsnames.ora that I copied directly from the server looks like this:
ORCL =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = oracle11gtest.terida.net)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = orcl.terida.net)
)
)
I've tried changing SERVICE_NAME to SID = orcl, no change inbehavior. My original guess was that the database wasn't registered with the listener, but that would mean sqlDeveloper should fail as well, but it works.Here is out put of lsnctrl status:
LSNRCTL> status
