Subject: SYS password problem

Hi Dears

My seniors forgot the SYS password for oracle 8.1.7.4 database, Is
it
possible to change the password. In oracle 9i if we forgot the SYS
password
we can delete the password file & recreate it with new password, Is the
same possible for oracle 8.1.7.4?


Thanks & Regards
