Well, my point of view is that SYSDBA should not to exist at all. Any
hacker knows: "there is a SYSDBA superuser, I just need to get the password
now"
At installation time or first run of GSEC the user should have the option
of choice the name and the password of the superuser. Both of them.
Security would be greater then.
Greetings.
Walter.
