I thought (for a micro-second, and very smug I was too) that we'd be more-or-less safe from crack attempts as we're going to be using in 9iAS R2's Active Directory bit to authenticate from our AD servers.
But, thought I, the AD implementation on Oracle is a sub-set of master LDAP - they're not banging on the read AD tree, just a select set OF the tree. Which means .. someone using this crack tool on an Oracle server running the AD/LDAP authentication can crack the AD/LDAP tree? Tell me if I'm right or not ... our AD admins aren't going to be happy. ~brian -----Original Message----- Sent: Tuesday, December 17, 2002 11:09 AM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Hmm...
