My understanding is that the JDBC thin client does not use Net8 across the network, but just connects directly to the listener. For example, on client systems that use thin client, I have not had to configure a tnsnames.ora. The way I understand secureID works, something on the client authenticates the connection to the server. My guess, and it is just a guess, since I've never worked with secureID, is that you will have to switch to thick client which uses Net8 to handle the connection.

dear list,

The setup:

app server 9ias 1.0.2.2.2a
db server 9i R2.

The application

Our app connects to the DB using JDBC thin, a simple app showing fields and inserting data into

underlying tables.

The problem

All was working fine, then the management asked us to use RSA/ACE security using Token cards,

we have implemented everything and all works fine, we CAN connect from the IAS to the DB using sql*plus

and providing the passcode, BUT out application (using JDBC thin) is not able to connect !!!

"invalid username or password" !!! we have another back office app connecting to the DB using web forms 6i,

which also has the same problem after we setup secureID.

again, we have no prolems connecting from SQL*PLUS using secureID passcodes

please advise
