Hi All:

I had a quick question/clarification. I was viewing the init.ora file
and noticed that the remote_os_authent parameter is set to true. I
realize that this causes a potential security issue. When a user
connects remotely does the database only authenticate through the OS
Username or the OS username/password?

Thanks in advance
