RMAN always connects as INTERNAL (SYSDBA) to the target database. So
what you said above is not right.
In fact connect as scott to SQL*PLUS and give this command.
host rman target x/y nocatalog
Even though the user x does not exist or even if the password y is
wrong, RMAN will connect to the TARGET specified by ORACLE_SID
variable trying to use OS Authentication.
It gives an error only if it fails.
so it will not connect as user SCOTT even if you gave
host rman target scott/tiger nocatalog
