Hi list,

I have problem connecting to target DB using account SYS with connect string. But SQL*Plus works fine.

For example,

SQL>connect sys/password_at_connectstring
connected.

but in RMAN (using same OS account and server)

---

RMAN> connect target sys/password_at_connectstring failed

RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-00569: =============== ERROR MESSAGE STACK FOLLOWS ===============
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================

RMAN-04005: error from target database: ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied

Any help will be really appreciated.

-Sami
