Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Changing Password
Changing the user identified by values 'enter some random string here' is a
good helpful resource.
This is tangential to the discussion of changing the users password.
What I learned about the other day is that you can also alter user
identified by external.
(Very interesting)
On a UNIX operating systems it means that if the oracle username and the
OS username match
and the user logs onto the UNIX operating system then the user can log into
the locally defined database in the
users' environment with a / to define the username/password combo and they
can then log in.
