Yo win - at least I think so - when I regranted the (supposedly) same password to sys it started working normally - now I have to find who changed the password - cause I create them all with standard scripts.

You probably have the sys password incorrect on instance2.  If you specify "as sysdba" it basically ignores the password if you are authorized as an OS user (belong to group oracle, for example).

Nope - they are both 9.2.0.2 solaris 9

Any chance that instance 2 is 9i, and instance 1 isn't?

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?
