You might be right - why else would we have the option to name the file
anything we want.
I can't find NT docs at the moment, so I can't verify this.

Chetan,
The NAME of the password file should be:
PWD{sidname}.ORA.
For example, if your Oracle Sid name is SB815, your password file should be
named
PWDSB815.ORA
On NT boxes, upper/lower case of the file name does not matter.
Hope this helps.

Hi List ,
I have Oracle 8.1.5 server on Win 2K machine.
When I try to connect as SYSDBA using SYS account from a remote machine it
says "ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied". Then I created a
password file using ORAPWD utility and granted SYS and WIP (a newly created
schema) the SYSDBA privilege. I also ensured that REMOTE_LOGIN_PASSWORDFILE
is set to TRUE, but still I can not connect as SYSDBA.
Following are the steps which I took.
Step 1. Created a password file as followed :
D:\Oracle\Ora815\BIN>cd ..\dbs
D:\Oracle\Ora815\DBS>orapwd file=orapwsb815 password=oracle8i
entries=30
Step 2. Grant SYS user the SYSDBA privilege by the following method
D:\Oracle\Ora815\DBS>svrmgrl
Oracle Server Manager Release 3.1.5.0.0 - Production
(c) Copyright 1997, Oracle Corporation. All Rights Reserved.
Oracle8i Release 8.1.5.0.0 - Production
With the Java option
PL/SQL Release 8.1.5.0.0 - Production
SVRMGR> connect internal
Password:
Connected.
SVRMGR> grant SYSDBA to SYS;
Statement processed.
SVRMGR> select * from v$pwfile_users ;
USERNAME SYSDB SYSOP
------------------------------ ----- -----
INTERNAL TRUE TRUE
SYS TRUE TRUE
2 rows selected.
Pls help me if possible.
Thanks in advance.
