Greg,

It is my understanding that it is only necessary to set 
SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES= (NTS) if oracle is going to be relying on 
the client NT workstation for authentication. Is that not correct?

Also, in my situation I am invoking SQL*Plus and SVRMGRL from the command 
prompt in a DOS window so sql*net does not come into play.

If I am missing something please let me know.

Thanks.
