SYSDBA, SYSOPER question.

I am studying for my DBA test and I was going through OLN's discussion on Operating System authenticated users (for administration). In the practice session it said to create a user with "create user .... identified externally". Next, it said to grant the user SYSDBA and SYSOPER while in SQL*Plus. I tried it and it didn't work: the error said that it can't do that, because it is identified externally. Am I not seeing something here, or is Oracle sometimes wrong in their documentation and tutorials?
