Password file - internal user

hi all,
when we create password file. then internal user is also created along with sys in oracle 9i. as we know that internal has been depricated since 9i.
SQL> select * from v$pwfile_users;
USERNAME SYSDB SYSOP
INTERNAL TRUE TRUE
SYS TRUE TRUE
regards
wire.

BSP - UserId and Password for Internal Users - Anonymous for other users

Hello,
We developed an application via BSP's. This application can be accessed by two kind of users.
1. External Users, with should access the page without using a userId and password.
2. Internal Users, they will have more authorisation and need to specify their userId and Password.
How can we accomplish this? I tried internal aliases, but can't get it to work properly.
In the first service 'zbsp' I didn't specify a userId and password in sicf.
Then I created an internal alias 'zbsp' referring to this 'zbsp'. In this alias I specified a userId and Password, but the system still asks for a userId and Password. (and after logging in the system gives the following error: The application name in URL .../bc/bsp/sap/zbsp2/uat_report.htm is invalid.)
What did I do wrong? Or are there other ways to accomplish this?
Greetings,
Bart

Take a look at the following mesaages that discussed the whole SSO and SSO2 ticket logins.
As for a way to handle the two different login types. Well first and formost - active the SSO Tickets on your system. Set your BSP up for that.
Then create a new starting page with an alias to the pöublic section for BSP's in your system. On this page make two links.
For your external users - one that redirects to your BSP passing the user and password in the url for the "read only external user" - that's the sap-user=name here&sap-password=passwordhere.
For your internal people give them simply the link to the BSP which when they click it will see no user name and password and redirect them to the BSP login.
Make sure you setup the BSP login according to SAP note 517860 and follow the instructions from http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/1d/13c73cee4fb55be10000000a114084/frameset.htm using the supplied SYSTEM_PUBLIC)
It's a bit basic but it works, we do it
Oh and setting up the system for the SSO (transaction sso2) is very very simple!!

Regarding password file

While creating database i put remote_login_passwordfile = exclusive in init.ora.
i created the password file with user name and password.
Afer i could connect internal with out givng username and password which have been given in password file.
I don't have proper idea on this please give me idea about this.

Omit the OS-User from ORA_SID_DBA group( in the User Manager) and try again to connect. it will solve your problem.

Set default password for all users including csv file

I would like to set the default password for all users
including the ones imported in the csv file?
Also now the default passwrd in set to the email address. How
do i change that setting to the "login" setting in the csv file so
those users can loin with that password?
Kinda the same question but do yuo get the idea?
Thank you,
Chip

You could download and install RCDefaultApp 2.1 for all users: check the Read Me and then test it on something to see if it accomplishes what you want.

The NLS operation failed because the registry key Control Panel\International\User Profile cannot be opened. Error code is 2. Error message: The system cannot find the file specified.

H,
Since upgrading Windows server 2008 R2 to Server 2012 Standard edition, we get this repetitious critical error in the event log:
Event 1001
Op Code NLS initialization
The NLS operation failed because the registry key Control Panel\International\User Profile cannot be opened. Error code is 2. Error message: The system cannot find the file specified.
We originally found that the regional date settings after changing them in regional settings (DD/MM/YYYY) and they did not inherit properly from the upgrade but they are ok now.
I've looked at HKCU\.Default\Control Panel\International and nothing looks obviously wrong. Country codes, time & date formats are correct.
How do we ascertain the cause of this error and the specific registry key that might be problematic?

Hi,
This could be caused by firewall rules or security softwares.

And in addition, the fix is worth a try.
Nothing happens when you double-click "Region" in Control Panel

Problem setting up user ids to use the Oracle password file.

I want to set up my database users so that a password file is used for connecting to the database. I have completed these steps successfully.
BTW - DB is 11.2.0.3 on AIX power 64
1. Created the password file for the database using the orapwd command. Allowing 20 entries. Confirmed the file was created in the $ORACLE_HOME/dbs directory
2. Created a database user, sbrower
CREATE USER SBROWER IDENTIFIED BY <password> DEFAULT TABLESPACE USERS TEMPORARY TABLESPACE TEMP PROFILE DEFAULT ACCOUNT UNLOCK ;
GRANT DBA TO SBROWER;
ALTER USER SBROWER DEFAULT ROLE ALL;
GRANT UNLIMITED TABLESPACE TO SBROWER;
ALTER USER SBROWER QUOTA UNLIMITED ON USERS;
3. Connected to the database as SYS and granted sysoper to SBROWER
4. Using putty, ssh'ed into the server where the database resides.
5. Set the oracle variables (ORACLE_HOME, ORACLE_BASE, etc.) and PATH
6. Was able to connect to the database using sqlplus / as syoper
THE PROBLEM
For another user, EA_RDX_ORACLE1, I follow the same steps (2-6) bu when I execute step 6, it does not allow the connection
ERROR:
ORA-01031: insufficient privileges
   but, if I use sqlplus ea_rdx_oracle1/thepassword as sysoper it works
Looking at v$pwfile_users on the database:
USERNAME SYSDBA   SYSOPER      SYSASM
SYS      TRUE      TRUE      FALSE
SBROWER FALSE     TRUE      FALSE
EA_RDX_ORACLE1 FALSE TRUE FALSE
3 rows selected.
There is one thing that is different for the ea_rdx_oracle1 id's:
- The users who use this id, use a took called CyberVault to check out the id. The password for the id changes each time the id is checked out; however, the way the id is set up on the DB servers, us user does not have to enter the password when they log in (ssh).
I have sent an email to our unix admin asking his how the id was set up so that it can ssh into the server. It is not included in the list of users in any group in the /etc/ogroup file and it is not included in the /etc/opassword file.

The OS authentication ( sqlplus / as sysdba ) does not require the password file.
The problem may be related to the OS user you are connecting to that server - it is not a member of OSDBA group ( usually DBA ).

Why does more users can login as sysdba than specified in password file

I have multiple databases using same password file which has five entries for sysdba, but i have more than five users who have sysdba right and all of them can simultaneously login as sysdba, can any one explain why

How do your users connect ? You may have any number of users connected locally as sysdba. Local connections are authenticated by OS, no password file is used.
Moreover, the five entries of password file have to be intended as DISTINCT users, but you may have a much higher number of connections.

How can i find out how many users can login as sysdba using password file

can any one please tell me how can i find out how many users can login as sysdba using password file
please reply

Password file users issue... RAC help please...

Hi guys,
i have a two node rac database installed on my laptop.. 11gr2.
in rac a database will be accessed by more than once instance correct....
here i have two instance myinst1 and myinst2.
here if we add a user in any one of the instances (say myinst1).. using that user account. the user can connect to either the myinst1 and myinst2.... correct....
say now i grant the user i just created with the SYSDBA and SYSOPER privileges.. (user created on myinst1).
now i can connect to both of the instance using the following syntax as a sysdba..
connect user/password@servicename as sysdba
now here comes the best part..
oracle states that once the user is given either the sysdba or sysoper it will be updated in the password file...
now as i have created the user in the myinst1 instance and granted the privileges there... the password file at the node myinst1 shows the details of the user in the V$PWFILE_USERS views. where as the other instance myinst2 V$PWFILE_USERS does nt have the user...
can any one tell me why is this happening... do i have to explictly grant the SYSDBA privilege on all the instances once if i want to grant a user with the sysdba or sysoper privilege...

Surely there is more than this? I have always believed that the only valid configuration of a Password File in RAC is for a single file to be shared by all instances - by putting it on a shared file system or multipathed raw volume (like the database files), with a Unix symbolic link or init.ora SPFILE reference on each node. I have seen documentation that people have stored a database password file in ASM (SPFILE=+XYZ...) and even on NFS and CIFS.
SYSDBA and SYSOPER access uses the password file of course and it is effectively part of the database, and to me it seems reasonable to expect that an instance will only update the one Password File it knows aboutwhen SYSDBA/OPER access is added, removed or changed; so the consequences of having multiple copies for a single database may be expected to be bad. It was noted here that granting SYSDBA privilege on one node leads to inconsistency in that account's privileges across nodes. Maybe worse is that removing SYSDBA access from one node could leave SYSDBA access to other nodes/instances in place, in clusters where there are multiple local password files... this can be viewed as a very serious security defect, which one of our DBAs has demonstrated.
Now I have learned that Oracle's documentation does not actually give much advice about the configuration of Password Files for RAC; that while some people have done what I expected for years, some product guides suggest on the contrary that local copies should be created on each node; and even that Oracle may not support a single Password File on a shared device. Having Googled the web and scanned this forum quickly, I haven't found a resolution. I am stunned.
I am sure that, of all people, the RAC SIG will be able to advise on this authoritatively, so please do so. If it turns out that Oracle does not recommend or support the use of a single shared file (*),then I suggest there is a significant issue.
(*) Just to be clear, I am not refering to a SHARED password file, but to an EXCLUSIVE one that is on a shared storage volume accessed by every instance of the same RAC database. How Oracle behaves with a SHARED parameter setting may be another issue.

No password for internal

Database: Oracle8i Enterprise Edition Release 8.1.7.0.1
OS: Linux 7.1, Kernel 2.4.2-2
I have not been able to set the password for internal. I have tried using orapwd with parameter remote_login_passwordfile = exclusive under init<sid>.ora file. It did not work. I have tried changing the password for sys using alter user sys identified by <somepassword>. It did not work. I have logged into an sqlplus session under user sys and issued-- password internal. It also did not work. Does anyone know how to setup/change the password for internal?
The disturbing thing about this is that there is no password required for user internal. All one has to do is type-- sqlplus internal-- and it will log a user into Oracle as user sys with sysdba priviledges enabling one to do just about anything to the database they want to. This is a serious security problem.
Did I miss something? Has anyone else had this problem and fixed it?

Hi,
every system user (UNIX) belonging to group "dba" - but nobody else - can login to oracle via sqlplus or svrmgrl as "user" internal without being asked for password. So the only security issue is to protect the UNIX server/UNIX account!
Pay attention: the connect internal is no longer supported with Oracle9i!

Thomas.

About password file

Hai,
Here i am facing one problem. I put remote_login_passwordfile = exclusive in init<sid>.ora.
It means it has to use password file.
But how come i could connect to internal with out using password.
$ svrmgrl
Oracle Server Manager Release 3.1.6.0.0 - Production
Copyright (c) 1997, 1999, Oracle Corporation. All Rights Reserved.
Oracle8i Release 8.1.6.0.0 - Production
JServer Release 8.1.6.0.0 - Production
SVRMGR> connect internal
Connected.
SVRMGR>
Even i put remote_login_passwordfile = none also i could connect internal with out using password.
What is the difference.
I read in oracle documentation that if we put remote_login_passwordfile = none it will use operating system authentication, if remote_login_passwordfile = exclusive then it will follow password file.
Please give me clear explanation please.
Waiting for reply,
Priya.
null

Setting REMOTE_LOGIN_PASSWORDFILE to NONE signifies that Oracle should ignore any password file. In such a scenario, the privileged users must be authenticated by the operating system. Setting the parameter to EXCLUSIVE signifies that the password file can be used by only one database. In your case it happens because the OS user has got the correct privileges. That is why you are able to connect as internal when this is set to None.

Tauqeer You use the orapwd command to create the password file.
$ orapwd

Need help with password file

Hi,
I created an oracle 8.0.6 database on win 2000 server. Everything is working fine.
Next, i downloaded production server data on this database. I can't login to sys,system or Internal.
Please suggest what to do.
1)If i Recreate password file, then do i need to stop the oracle services b4 creating password file.

What you mean OLD? Did there any other instance? Anyway each instance has its own password file, in Windows it must be in the $ORACLE_HOME/database directory named orapw<SID>.ora.
Check remote_login_passwordfile parameter. What error is generated when you try to connect. Connect to the system as the user who installed the oracle software. You can recreate password file
on running instance.

Oracle on NT (Logmnr and Internal User fail)

Hi,
My Environment is NT. I got two questions First, I have problem to use "Log Viewer"
DBMS_LOGMNR_D to create the dictionary file.
In the statement, I should have file name and file directory to generate the dictionary file. The problem is the file directoy format of NT and Unix is different, so I changed the file directory to the right format for NT. However, I tried several kinds of format. None of them works. So, does anyone knows the right format for "logmnrd" for NT?
Second, my test environment can not be logged in as internal user , system and sys. I am sure the password is correct, but at the time I connectted by them. I got the error message indicating me that "Insufficient Privilege". I don't know why? So the only way for me the shutdown the database is through the NT services.
Does any one know how to solve this?
Thanks in advance.
