When I'm logged onto the Unix system as user "oracle"
using 9i, Oracle refuses to allow me to log into it by
just using "/". It insists that always include the two
words " / as sysdba"! Since it precludes me from
logging into Oracle just using "/", what is gained by
forcing me to always specify "as sysdba", too????
