Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Re: hide password
Make the parfile readable only by the oracle user (or whatever user is running the export).
Scott Shafer
San Antonio, TX
But (while performing exp) when we grep from os it will display like
ps -ef |grep exp
result: exp parfile=/ora8/par1
so, somebody can do a more and find the password from the par1 file.
Is there any better alternative?
Thnx and regards,
Srinivas

Jack,
I think you are referring to PARFILE...

Hi lists,
We can see users password using
ps -ef |grep sqlplus
(if we run a job using sqlplus scott/tiger @${runfile} ).
To prevent this we can run our code
sqlplus -s <<EOF
scott/tiger
@${runfile}
EOF
Is there a similar way in export hiding the password (preventing users
to see the password) . I tried it with EOF. But its not working.
I need to setup the export in cron.
can anybody through some light on this.....
Thnx and regards,
Srinivas
