Subject: sys login -probably a dumb question
I have 2 instances on a sun box.
instance abc I can connect by just -- sys/not_default@abc
but on instance def I can't connect by
sys/not_default2@def it gives a
ERROR:
ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied
Warning: You are no longer connected to ORACLE.
I have to use sys/not_default2@def as sysdba.
why?
