Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> re SYSDBA
As a rule, I prefer "REMOTE_LOGIN_PASSWORDFILE=NONE "
Thus, only a local account in the "dba" group can login as SYSDBA, preventing logins over remote connections.
I even had an auditor point to my Plumtree database {where Plumtree's init.ora used a REMOTE_LOGIN_PASSWORDFILE=EXCLUSIVE} and ask me to disable it.
