Hello,

env: Oracle 9.2.0.2 on Solaris 9.

Does anyone know of a way to use the "/ as sysdba" logon remotely?
(to a separate Oracle instance on a separate machine)

Other remote user logons work OK.

I have tried several variations from sqlplus, such as

[EMAIL PROTECTED]>connect /@DWQ as sysdba
ERROR:
ORA-01031: insufficient privileges

Warning: You are no longer connected to ORACLE.

[EMAIL PROTECTED]>connect sys/[EMAIL PROTECTED] as sysdba
ERROR:
ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied

[EMAIL PROTECTED]>connect sys/exr_sys as [EMAIL PROTECTED]
SP2-0306: Invalid option.
Usage: CONN[ECT] [logon] [AS {SYSDBA|SYSOPER}]
where <logon>  ::= <username>[/<password>][@<connect_string>] | /

[EMAIL PROTECTED]>connect sys/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
ERROR:
ORA-28009: connection to sys should be as sysdba or sysoper

I also find I cannot even "connect sys/syspassword" locally:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]>connect sys/sys_password
ERROR:
ORA-28009: connection to sys should be as sysdba or sysoper

This does work locally, but not remotely:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]>connect sys/sys_password as sysdba
Connected.

I am a  member of the dba group on both platforms. 

I have verified that I am using the correct sys_password for sys
on the remote instance.

Eventually, I want to do a remote transportable tablespace import, where 
the userid would be listed in a parfile; I have tried the same logons in
a parfile, and that also fails.

I found a Metalink doc that says the O7_DICTIONARY_ACCESSIBILITY (sp?)
must be true to do this, but the same doc strongly advises against setting
this to true.

So, has anyone found a way to use the "/ as sysdba" logon remotely?
(without setting the O7 parameter to true)

Thanks to any responders.
