Richard Huntley To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L <rhuntley <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> @mindleaders. cc: com> Subject: RE: host from SQL> prompt Sent by: root 05/21/2002 02:12 PM Please respond to ORACLE-L I wish I could train them like monkeys, but no, it's an account for tech. support and they're ssh'ing into the production box, and I want to limit their access and give them no way to get to a command prompt, if I can avoid it. Would you believe that they were originally setup to get into the box as the owner of the oracle software..SCARY! -----Original Message----- Sent: Tuesday, May 21, 2002 1:21 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Are they telnetting in to your server and then running SQLPlus at the command prompt or are they running SQLPlus from their client and connecting via SQLNet? If the first, then "host" will not give them anything that they won't get from the telnet session. If the second, they they'll most likely end up at the ORACLE_HOME\bin prompt of their workstation. Are your users really just trained monkeys in disguise and you don't want them to try to recreate the works of Shakespear via random keystrokes? What's the real issue here? Richard Huntley To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L <rhuntley <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> @mindleaders. cc: com> Subject: host from SQL> prompt Sent by: root 05/21/2002 12:38 PM Please respond to ORACLE-L How can I prevent users from typing "host" to get to an OS prompt while logged into a DB account with an OS account? They can host to a prompt now, but they can't do anything useful from there, since $ORACLE_HOME is the only thing in their PATH...just wondered if there is an easy way to prevent the use of the host command all together.
