Does authentication_required Parameter exist?

I have "inherited" a 10gR2 database that has following entry in sqlnet.ora
SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_REQUIRED=FALSEI wonder if such a parameter does exist. I searched Oracle docs 10g and 9i but did not find anything.
The DBAs setting up the DB already left the company. The DB has been migrated from 9i to 10g some time ago (some of these DBAs are still available but none of them can explain the parameter). Does anybody know this parameter?
sqlnet.ora has the following parameters (BEQ in line SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES=(BEQ,NTS, NONE) is not listed in documentation http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/network.102/b14213/sqlnet.htm#sthref443 ):
USE_DEDICATED_SERVER=ON
SQLNET.ENCRYPTION_SERVER=REQUIRED
SQLNET.ENCRYPTION_CLIENT=REQUIRED
SQLNET.ENCRYPTION_TYPES_SERVER=(RC4_40,RC4_128)
SQLNET.ENCRYPTION_TYPES_CLIENT=(RC4_40,RC4_128)
SQLNET.CRYPTO_SEED = "<deleted>"
SQLNET.CRYPTO_CHECKSUM_SERVER=REQUIRED
SQLNET.CRYPTO_CHECKSUM_CLIENT=REQUIRED
SQLNET.CRYPTO_CHECKSUM_TYPES_SERVER = (MD5)
SQLNET.CRYPTO_CHECKSUM_TYPES_CLIENT = (MD5)
SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES=(BEQ,NTS, NONE)
SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_REQUIRED=FALSE

Part of Oracle 9 Advanced Security Guide :
EXTERNAL AUTHENTICATION AND SINGLE SIGN-ON
In order to require external authentication and disable username/
password authentication, set the sqlnet.ora parameter
SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_REQUIRED=TRUE. The default is false.
If you are not using external authentication you can remove this parameter.
False is the default you can remove this from your SQLNET.ORA.

  • Determine if parameter exists

    I am trying to programatically Enable and Disable database logging. Database is set to disable from Configure>Result Processing..., I write to Parameters.ModelPluginConfiguration.Plugins[1].PluginSpecific.Options.DisableDatabaseLogging value of False. This does not enables database and nothing gets comitted. All this customization is done in PreUUT.
    Also need to have a precondition to find if a Parameter exists.
    PropertyExists("Parameters.ModelPluginConfiguration.Plugins[Locals.DatabaseIndex].PluginSpecific.Options.DisableDatabaseLogging")
    But the above always returns False. Need to receive True when Locals.DatabaseIndex is set to 1 as that is the location of Database under Configure>>ResultProcessing.
    Thanks.

    Your lookup string is wrong. It has to look like this:
    PropertyExists("Parameters.ModelPluginConfiguration.Plugins["+Str(Locals.DatabaseIndex)+"].PluginSpecific.Options.DisableDatabaseLogging")
    hope this helps,

    Yes, there are VIs for acquiring data from Sound cards. And examples too. If you don't have LabVIEW yet, do a search on NI's site for example VIs.

  • How do I show the bookmarks toolbar while in fullscreen on Firefox 20? In older versions you could edit the userChrome.css file. Does that still exist?

    After searching for this option, it appears it was very easy to do in older versions of firefox on windows 7. Many posts say you can edit the userChrome.css file to add:
    #PersonalToolbar[moz-collapsed="true"] {
    visibility: visible !important;
    However, on 2 machines with firefox 20, I've searched for that file and cannot find it. Does it even exist any more? if not, how can I set firefox to go to fullscreen mode and continue to show the bookmarks toolbar? Unchecking hide toolbars does not work for the bookmarks toolbar.

    userChrome.css does not exist by default. You can create it; it's an ordinary text file. Note that you do need a namespace at the beginning of the file.
    You could try this:
    @namespace url(http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul);
    #PersonalToolbar[moz-collapsed="true"]{
    visibility: visible !important;
    #navigator-toolbox[inFullscreen="true"]{
    margin-top:-62px !important;
    I added the second rule to prevents the toolbar area from rolling all the way up. The specific value may need to be adjusted by a few pixels depending on your toolbar heights.

  • Key value does not currently exist in the primary key table error

    Im testing out a form and creating a new insert once all the fields are filled in it wont allow me to move on and comes up with this error message;
    key value does not currently exist in the primary key table
    Is this becuase the form contains foriegn keys which reference different tables which fields are not dispalyed on this form?
    If so how to I link the other forms together so that when i create a new record in this form it will automaticaly create the primary key entry in the other form to allow the insert of the referenced foreign key in this form?
    does this make sense?

    It seems that it has the table in which you'r inserting is a foreign key table.
    Take the emp& dept table example in the schema scott/tiger.
    Say we have deptno 10, 20, 30, 40 in the dept table.
    We make a form for emp table and insert into this form.
    Now, we'r bound to insert deptno 10, 20, 30, 40 into this emp form. This form will not allow us to insert deptno 50 as it doesn't exist in the primary key column in dept table.
    Obviously if a department doesn't exist in the company, it doesn't make sense to assign the employees to that department.
    So for this purpose, we need to add a department in the dept table then we can insert values in the emp table for that department.
    For this purpose, I suggest to make a button on the mp form and invoke the dept form and add a new department to it and then insert into emp table.
    The same scenario can be applied in your case.

  • What does this parameter do "Force SQLExecute" in the background.

    Can anybody tell me  what does this parameter does  "Force SQLExecute" in the background?
    It is in the sbo file.

    Guarav,
    I searched for your comment "Force SQLExecute" in the slew of BO XI R2 PDFs I have stockpiled away and found this entry in the PDF "boxir2sp2_readme_with_chf.pdf":

    Description:
    When an SQL server ODBC connection is used, users are unable to create a Desktop Intelligence report that is based on a stored procedure that creates, populates, and then drops a temporary table.
    New Behavior:
    This problem is resolved.
    Known Limitations:
    If users want to execute a stored procedure that creates, populates, and then drops a temporary table in Free-Hand mode, they can modify the odbc.sbo file:
    1. In a text editor, open the odbc.sbo file, which is in the following directory: <BOEINSTALLFOLDER>\BusinessObjects
    Enterprise 11.5\win32_x86\dataAccess\connectionServer\odbc.sbo.
    2. In the sections "MS SQL Server 7.x", "MS SQL Server 2000" and "MS SQL Server 2005", locate the following line:
    <Parameter Name="Force SQLExecute">Procedures</Parameter>
    3. Replace the line with the following:
    <Parameter Name="Force SQLExecute">Always</Parameter>
    -unquote
    So hopefully this tidibit of information helps you to understand the parameter and usage.
    Thanks,
    John

  • Stupid question:  Does Acrobat X1 exist as a standalone product?

    Total Newbie.  Forgive me.  I need Acrobat for a writing project.  I can't seem to find a simple purchase and download option for a basic standalone software package.  I've never run into so many dead ends trying to make a simple purchase. Everything seems to be tied up in some sort of cloud membership requiring monthly payments.  I just want a program that can edit pdf files.  Nothing fancy.  Does this even exist?  Thanks in advance for pointing me in the right direction.

    Hi dinsdale,
    Yes Acrobat 11 exists as a standalone product for US $449.00
    You can purchase it from : Pricing | Adobe Acrobat XI

    Thank you for your answer. Sorry I duplicated my question and that I mIssed your  first answer. I find it fairly confusing navigating for help, specially as I am not a native English speaking person. It was not easy to find the link specially as it says that Premiere Elements comes with a tab named eLive and without you help I would not ever have found it. I desperately looked for that "tab" in the program itself.

  • Cisco ASR1004 error %VRF specified does not match existing router

    Hi all,
    I have a problem and I really do not know the reason.
    Simple scenario. I need to configure ospf into a ASR1004 router.
    Here the command
    vrf definition TEST-02
     address-family ipv4
     exit-address-family
    interface Loopback25
     description TEST-02
    vrf forwarding TEST-02
     ip address 1.1.1.1 255.255.255.255
     ip ospf 2 area 0.0.0.1
    As soon I am running the command  ip ospf 2 area 0.0.0.1, I got this error %VRF specified does not match existing router.
    I configure with success other different vrf before and after this problem so I can not understand why the router is refusing this configuration.
    Any idea?
    Thank you.
    Regards,
    Fabio.

    Hello.
    Your OSPF process 2 (in global configuration mode) should be configured with vrf keyword like following:
     router ospf 2 vrf TEST-02
