Yep, that would be it. Get SA to chgrp on oracle to DBA. Then connect '/as
sysdba' should work fine.

yes this is AIX
TWO_TASK is unset.
the only thing that i think is strange that when i su to oracle the group
doesnt change to dba instead it is set to staff. need to talk to my
sysadmins about this.

IF you are on a UNIX version then when you set your Oracle environment do
you set the TWO_TASK variable? If so unset TWO_TASK prior to attempting to
create a sysdba session via sqlplus /nolog. Having TWO_TASK set when you
attempt to connect / as sysdba using OS group security will result in a
ORA-01031 error.

We are movign all our accounts to su only authentication on the os level.
one of the problems i'm seeing it that if i su into oracle and do a
conenct / as sysdba
i get a 1031 insufficient privileges.
the remote_login_passwordfile is set to exclusive.
i can connect thru sysdba if am logged in directly .
any ideas any one have this issue.
