I removed old password file and recreated new password file to connect to database as sys user with different password ( oracle as password) .Below is the command which i created i password file on windows.

orapwd file=D:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\database\PWD.ora password=oracle entries=5

When i connect using sys as sysdba and password as sysdba i was still able to connect to the database after recreating password file . But i dont want that to happen that. I want sys user to connect only using 'oracle' as password.(which i have set it in the password file creation)

can anybody tell me how to do that??

Regards,
Balaji

Do you mean you connect without password or with a password that is not oracle?

i can able to connect with oracle as password as well as sysdba as password for 'sys' user after recreating password file.

Do i need to shutdown the database before creating password file?

Execute an "alter user" on SYS to synchronize both.

pls check your sqlnet.ora file。
sqlnet.authentication_services=none
It force you connecting the database using a password.

Yes, your right but this is not OP looking for.

As michal suggestion "alter user sys identified by oracle" will help in OP doubt.

OP want to connect only with ORACLE(password).

Don't describe what you did, post it.
You miss something but we can't see it as you don't and can't tell us what it is because you miss it.

So restart from the beginning, put back NT in sqlnet.authentication_services, connect as sysdba, change SYS password to oracle, set remote_login_passwordfile to exclusive, recreate the password file with password oracle.

Note that password file is used ONLY for remote connection not local one.

Michel
