Hi all,
I have never done this particular activity but by following the clues given
in this
thread AND BY reading the documentation I was able to make this work. The
steps I followed were.
at this point you can see these unsuccessful logins by monitoring the dba_audit_trail view.

To track users who tried and logged into the database :
SQL > audit session;
I don't know in which section you can find that in the Administrator Guide.

Joe,
We referred the auditing option. My understanding
is that you can track the oracle users using database auditing feature
once the users are logged into the database.
But my requirement is to track the users who tried
to login to the database but could not login due to wrong password.
For example, somebody may know the connect string
for an oracle database and trying to login to the database as system
user and with various combination of password. We like to know who
are these users.
Thanks,
Ashoke
