Hi,
How I want to keep two password for one user.
For example
SQL> alter user scott identified by tiger;

Now i want two person to give secret password seperately as follows:

SQL> alter user scott identified by password1 || password2;

Note: For the user scott the password1 and password2 should be kept by two different person. While loggin to the database through SQL the password1 and password2 should be entered by two different person.

Please help me!!!

>>How I want to keep two password for one user.
Not possible.
You can create two different users and make them look alike (sharing the same objects) and make your everyday life more complex. But not possible to do what you are seeking after.

It is not possible to assign two passwords for one user, I don't know why u want to do, but you can assign same password to different users.

It seems the OP wants to impelement the practical things done banks locker same with Oracle, As in a bank locker, it can't be opened with a single key, 2 keys are required,

This is not possible here,
I wish some one from Oracle could read this requirement and try to implement in future release, Till the Wait and Watch. Cool

Regards

Hmmmm, you could, I suppose, do the following.

Revoke all priviledges from user Scott except for the Create Session Priviledge.
Create a password protected role that has all of the required priviledges for Scott.

Person 1 logs in as Scott with main password.
Person 2 takes over and activates the appropriate role with the password for that role.

Scott now has priviledges active.
