run:
select username from dba_users
where password = 'EXTERNAL'
Is there a user that matches the currently logged on
Win2k account?
Is it a domain account? It needs to be a local account,
as I don't think you can use a domain account without
also using 'remote_os_authent=true'.
At least, it doesn't work for me that way. I've only used
external auth with local accounts.

Subject: OS Authentication on Win2K
I am having problems getting OS authentication to work on a Win2K oracle
server (8.1.7.1.1).
All parameters are set properly (from what I can see). There cannot be a
prefix so the following parameter is set as follows: os_authent_prefix =
""
I need to be able to log into the server as a user identified externally
and
just type sqlplus / for access. It is also necessary for the users
identified
externally to be able to use a password as well. Any suggestions? Anyone
else run into problems with this?
