Hi Expert,
Thanx 4 ur time,
I have few queries

(1) I have prod. database(8i enterprise edition) running on win nt server.
Its running fine.

Now I have created another database(test) thru Database Configuration assistance.
It has been created successfully.

But now I want to connect to this new database,

when I am trying to connect -connect scott/tiger@test
its giving error
-ERROR: ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve service name

Kindly tell me what should I do ,in order to connect to new db.

(2) I want to change the password of internal
How can I do so

Pls reply in detail if possible.

Thanx.

create a tnsentry 'test' in your tnsnames.ora.
so if you want to connect to prod database
use
-- by default it will go the primary sid ie..prod in 
--this case ... if you want u create another entry for 
-- prod so that you can connect like connect scott/tiger@prod
connect scot/tiger  
-- to connect to test
connect scott/tiger@test

to change the password or set a password for internal use passwordfile
