There is an init.oram parameter, REMOTE_OS_AUTHENT. which controls this. Its default value is false. Setting it to true is begging for trouble.

BTW, It's "identified externally" not "identified by externally"

Hi,

If there is user created using identified by externally, could this user login to database remotely? If it could, could you please help us?

Thanks,

Jun
