Disabling password checking?

Hi all,
is it possible in Oracle to disable password checking, so that I could be connect with just
<username>@<service name>
without being prompted for a password?
Now please don't condemn me... The idea is the following:
It's all about a dedicated developer database / server.
I have a lot of scripts which deploy the schema objects of our app, in several "connected" schemas, which are used by the app. For the sake of simplicity and speed we have been using <username>=<password>. But the consequence is, that these scripts cannot be used unchanged for deploying into production.
It would be great, if I could only use the above mentioned connection script and by a central db-configuration, in one case it would connect me to the DB, in the other case I would be prompted for the password.
Now please, don't value the approach. This not my idea. But is there a way disable password checking (entering question...)?
Many thanks, in advance

What kind of scripts?
What OS?
What version of Oracle?
We use an environment variables to hold the username and password. The OS then substitutes the current username and corresponding password into the script at run time. So the same Korn shell script we use in test can run in production unchanged and the developers do not know the production password.
Oraclle also support global authenication via an Directory Server with the Advanced Security option.
HTH -- Mark D Powell --I have the feeling, that you understood what I mean, still I don't understand your solution. But first I should provide more information...
We are using 11gR2 on Linux machines, both for development as well as for production. We have a concept for continuous integration, where every schema object has it's own DDL script and then we have an allobjects.sql scripts which every single one of them (simply speaking).
These are all SQL scripts, written to be executed in sqlplus. In SQLPLUS variables I am handling things like schema names and passwords. The "master" sql-scripts "connect"s itself to all necessary schemas for the app, and deploys every single database objects, executing its script. The consequence is, the "master" scripts contains many "connect" statements and in production every single one schema of the app, could have different password, so I can't just pass it as a parameter to the sql-script once.
I hope, I have been more clear than the first time. So we have an app, which uses 8-9 schemas to be completely deployed. So I thought, if I could just use "<username>@<service name>" in my scripts, than the DBAs would be able to use them, unchanged, entering the production passwords, when prompted, without the developers knowing them....

    According to the manual you need to check "Configuring Password Protection" in Oracle Database Security Guide
    In the security guide http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B28359_01/network.111/b28531.pdf, section 3-9/p61, you'll see you need to alter the script UTLPWDMG.SQL. You''l find the script in ORA_HOME/rdbms/admin.
    You'll need to change the script to your own liking.

  • Portal user creation- Disable password Option

    Hi all,
    Can i disable password for all my users.
    we have an option to disable password while creating users.
    i tried creating but it doesnot allow me to login with password field left balnk--it says "Authentication failed. Logon with password not allowed"
    hari

    Hi,
       Disable password doesn't mean you can login without password. It doesn't allow the user to logon directly i.e., This deactivates password-based logon. This means that the user can no longer log on using a password, but only with Single Sign-On variants (X.509 certificate, logon ticket).
    This is useful if you do not require password-based logon because logon is performed exclusively in other ways (such as using logon tickets, see SAP Note 177895). In this case, deactivating the password increases security, as passwords that are not used are usually still initial.Although the deactivation of passwords cannot be made retrospectively, the administrator can define a new initial password at any time.

  • Maxtor OneTouch III cannot disable password (security settings)

    I have a question regarding my iMac Intel running Leopard and Maxtor OneTouch III for use with Time Machine.
    It was a back up before and was connected with my iMac G4 running Tiger.
    Now the iMac Intel shows the Maxtor, but everytime the iMac shuts down and get started again, the system ask for my password.
    With the post here under from Jan 19, 2008, I give it a try by connecting the Maxtor III with my iBook with Tiger, I'm not able to disable Security !! I can go to Security settings, but the field "disable password" is grey and I cannot select it.
    Has anyone the solution? Thank Frank
    (here under the posted message from before)
    Re: MLeopard and MAXTOR one Touch III 350Gb external Hardisk
    Posted: Jan 19, 2008 10:53 AM
    So here's what you do if you're drive is password protected, and you just upgraded to Leopard and your Mac isn't finding your drive:
    If by chance you have the CD that came with the drive great! Or if you have a copy of the installers somewhere, it should contain the exe's for Windows. I had a copy on my Mac, copied to a thumb-drive, and installed the Maxtor OneTouch Manager on my Windows machine. Ran the installer, restarted, then connected my drive, which by the way is formatted for Mac, the Manager launches and asks if you want to reformat for Windows, say no! Then, you will be prompted to input your password to unlock the drive. Unlock, then go to Settings, and disable Security. You will be prompted for your password again. Now that you've unlocked it, unplug and plug back into your Mac, and BAM! You got your drive working on Leopard! See ya!!

    These don't seem to be errors as much as a log of the activity of the software.
    How did you install the software? If there is a installer one option might be to uninstall it. Or use Spotlight to find all the Maxtors, or check Maxtor forums.
    There's Google as well with this first hit:
    Blog Quote:" If, like me, you upgraded your Powerbook to Mac OS X "Tiger" only to find it crashing every time you plugged in your Maxtor OneTouch firewire disk, fear not. The solution turns out to be quite simple.
    If you have the following kernel extensions in your /System/Library/Extensions/ folder, then move them out to the desktop and reboot:
    IOFireWireMxBt.kext
    MaxtorPowSecDriver.kext
    The backup software is Retrsopect Express - can you find that?

  • Preventing disabling of check box - item okay in MIGO

    Dear all,
    In the MIGO transaction - during goods receipt for subcontractor material, when the item (incoming) is checked as item okay - automatically the child material (Material sent to subcontractor) is also activated thereby to enable 543 movement.
    Unfortunately some of the users are disabling the check box (for the material sent to the subcontractor). This prevents depletion of stock from the subcontractor but inflates the stock of the incoming material.
    Is there any way - either by authorisation check to prevent users disabling the check box or other methods?
    Experts suggestion is required in this regard.
    Thanks in advance.

  • Disabling the Check for Update feature in 10.1.3

    Hi,
    I work at a government facility that has tight security restrictions regarding downloading software. We are about to prepare a software delivery package for JDeveloper 10.1.3 that will let our IT department install JDeveloper on all of our developer workstations. One thing we would like to do as part of this deployment package is to disable the Check for Updates and PlugIn feature of JDeveloper. Is there a setting in a configuration file that controls this menu item?
    Thanks,
    Richard

    Hi,
    Is the requirement to disable the check for updates feature altogether (i.e. remove the menu item), or to just disable the automatic check that happens on startup?
    There isn't currently a documented way to totally disable the feature altogether, however it's possible to add such a feature in a future service update if necessary.
    There is a potential way in which you can modify the behavior of the wizard such that it will always find no updates (the menu item will still be present, however). If this is an acceptable solution to you, let me know and I'll fill you in on the details.
    Thanks,

  • Using Javascript to disable a check box

    Friends,
    I am stuck on what should be a simple requirement and I am hoping you can help.
    I need to disable a form region checkbox if a field on the same form region has anything entered.
    What I have done so far is:
    1) On the item that determines whether the check box should be disabled I have added a call to my Javascript function "onChange="disableDefaultDisplay();" in the "HTML Form Element Attributes"
    2) My javascript funcion is: (this is the basic version, all I am trying to do is disable the check box at this point)
    function disableDefaultDisplay()
    alert("Start of the function");
    var defaultDisplay = document.getElementById("P13_DEFAULT_DISPLAY");
    *defaultDisplay.enabled = false;*
    alert("End of the function");
    Using a combination of firebug and the alert messages I can see that function is called at the correct time (i.e. when the user changes and then leaves the field) and that the values of the variable, defaultDate are set but my attempts to disable the checkbox have yet to work!
    When I look at the type of the checkbox (through the source of the page or firebug) I see the checkbox has the following "fieldset#P13_DEFAULT_DISPLAY.checkbox_group" Do I need to do anything different to disable this type of object?
    Any help would be very much appreciated!

    Hi Andy,
    I was returning to this thread to update it with how I resolved it, so thanks for the detailed response.
    In a nutshell, the solution I used was a loop through the field set(of which there is only one item in it) and disabling it.
    Where you say:
    Secondly, checkboxes are, as you have seen, wrapped within a fieldset tag. The fieldset tag has an ID of the page item name. Each checkbox within that tag has its own ID value, which will be the fieldset ID plus "_n" (where n is a sequential number starting from 0) - thus, the first checkbox will be, for example, "P1_CHECKBOX_0", the second will be "P1_CHECKBOX_1" and so on.From my searching for a solution I had expected to see something like that. But the source for the item I was trying to disable is shown below and I can't see any numbers after it.
    Do you know why? Is it because it is the only item?
    &lt;fieldset id="P13_DEFAULT_DISPLAY" class="checkbox_group"&gt;
    &lt;input type="checkbox" name="p_v18" value="Y" id="P13_DEFAULT_DISPLAY" /&gt;&lt;/fieldset&gt;

  • Disable individual check boxes in ALV

    Hi all,
    My requirement is that I have one check box against each row. User clicks on the check box then that row is selected and on clicking the push button, bapi is called.
    If result of bapi is success, I want to disable the check box for that particular row/rows. Can you please tell me how I can achieve that? I know how to disbale all the check boxes in the list but I dont know how to disable the individual check boxes.
    Thanks and regards,
    Ridhima

    For that you need to play with the EDITABLE feature of the ALV at the field level.
    Declare a field STYLE type LVC_T_STYL as a part of your internal table. Now, for each row, append the fields of that row to the STYLE column specifying whether it has to be editable or not. You can use the attributes cl_gui_alv_grid=>mc_style_enabled and cl_gui_alv_grid=>mc_style_disabled for this.
    You can look at these threads
