Security :: Authentication For Connected User Database Links (release 11.x)
Jun 16, 2013I know how to use database links in various forms, but I've been trying to think through how the authentication works for a connected user link in 11g. If I create the link like this,create public database link using 'orcl';then any user can use the link, provided they have an identical username/password in the two databases. With pre-11g passwords, it was understandable: the password was salted with the username, so the hash of the password would be the same in both databases, and I assumed that the logon through the link used some sort of IDENTIFIED BY VALUES mechanism. But in 11g, the salt will different in the two databases. So the hash will be different. And of course Oracle never stores the actual password. So I don't see how the authentication works.

View 3 Replies View RelatedHow And When The Database Release A Row Lock
May 30, 2013We are using the following statement to obtain a row lock in a table in the database(ORACLE 10G), SELECT * FROM {TABLE_NAME} WHERE ID = 1 for update and if we succeed grabbing the row lock we will continue to issue a update statement every 30 seconds to preserve the lock as far as possible. here is the update statement to preserve the lock,
UPDATE {TABLE_NAME} SET time = ? WHERE ID = 1.
As you see more longer we keep holding the row lock , more update statements are submitted in the pending transaction. In normal case our application can grab the exclusive row lock and works for a long time,however sometimes a connection reset exception is thrown and our application will close the connection(I assume the pending transaction will be rolled back by the database) and exit the JVM. Since other applications will keep trying to grab the same row lock to become the master role, we expect one of them can succeed but they are all failed because the database has not released the row lock as expected. how and when the row lock can get released in our use case?

Forms :: Find Key Pressed And Release Action On Oracle 10g
Dec 14, 2012we need to find the key pressed action and key release action on Oracle form 10g. On key pressed (i.e. key-up, key-down, key-page-up and key- page-down) the event will be fired and as soon as the user release the key, the event will be stop.
As current situation, we have one form which contains the database blocks. As per search condition, all the data populated in Database block, there are 1000 and more records. Now user going use any of key (i.e. key-up, key-down, key-page-up and key-page-down) as he pressed key ( say Key- down) it scrolled down but as soon as he release the key, the event is not stopped. its going on going down then stop.
Is it possible, as user release the key scrolling will stopped at same time ?

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?

Data Guard :: Apply Patches On Oracle Database With Logical Standby Database?
Apr 22, 2011I got a primary database with a logical standby database running Oracle 11g. I got two client applications, one is the production site pointing to the primary one, another one is just a backup site pointing to the logical one.Things will only be written into the primary database every mid night and client applications can only query the database but not add, update nor delete.And now, I want to apply the latest patch on both of my databases. I am also the DNS administrator, I can make the name server pointing to the backup site instead of the production one.I want to firstly apply the patch on the logical one, and then the physical one.
I found some reference which explains how to apply patches by adopting "Rolling Upgrade Method". however, I want to avoid doing any "switch over" mentioned in the reference because I can make use of name server. Can I just apply patches as the following way?
1)Stop SQL apply
2)Apply patches on logical standby database
3)let the name server point to the backup site
4)Apply patches on the primary database
5)Start SQL apply
6)Let the name server point back to the production site
