When running packages in Oracle 8 on sun solaris I want to
use the userid logon to get me into oracle. The manual is
not very clear on this. Please correct me if I am wrong. I think
there is an enviromental variable called OPS$ that gets set
to your current database in init.ora. Somehow from that you
should be able to run your packages with an OPS$userid reference
and not have to embed the userid/password in the package.
Any help would be greatly appreciated we are relative newbies
to oracle.
