Hello,

I am running oracle 8.1.6.1.3 on NT 4.0 and am having difficulties attempting to connect internal from SQL*Plus.

 From a DOS prompt logged in as the Oracle user which has full administrative rights...

c:\>set ORACLE_SID=sidname
c:\> sqlplus /nolog
SQL> connect internal

Enter Password: ******
ERROR:
ORA-01031: insufficient privileges
SQL> exit
c:\> svrmgrl
SVRMGRL> connect internal
Password: *****
Connected:
SVRMGRL> There is an ORA_DBA group on the machine and the oracle user is a member. In the init.ora file...

remote_login_passwordfile=shared

I do not uderstand the reason for this. Any help in resolving this quandry would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
