Hi!

How do I enable operating system authentication on NT/2000?

I have a Windows user COMOBJECT that I want to authenticate in Oracle without a password.

I also created an Oracle user COMOBJECT (same password as windows user) with privileges to access some objects.

Then I set

remote_login_passwordfile = none
os_authent_prefix = ""
in the init.ora and bounced the instance.

Now I log into Windows as the comobject user and issue: sqlplus /

and get ORA-1004: default username feature not supported

What am I missing?
