Joe, Try this:
select s.username, s.sid, s.serial# from v$session s where userenv('SESSIONID') = s.audsid; Jared "JOE TESTA" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] 09/10/2002 08:58 AM Please respond to ORACLE-L To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> cc: Subject: methodology to keep only certain programs to connect to I've been tasked to ensure only certain app programs access the database. I'm thinking on-logon trigger, check the program field from v$session. unfortunately v$session is for all sessions, i can't seem to find the view that tells me only MY info during login. I only want the sid, serial#, username and program for my just now connection to the database. Does this exist or am I going about this the wrong way? We're thinking of checking those fields to make sure sql*plus, toad, etc can't connect as a particular user(even though the password is known out in the community). any ideas would be greatly appreciated. joe -- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.com -- Author: INET: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fat City Network Services -- (858) 538-5051 FAX: (858) 538-5051 San Diego, California -- Public Internet access / Mailing Lists -------------------------------------------------------------------- To REMOVE yourself from this mailing list, send an E-Mail message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (note EXACT spelling of 'ListGuru') and in the message BODY, include a line containing: UNSUB ORACLE-L (or the name of mailing list you want to be removed from).
