I don't see any extraneous characters in
sys_context('userenv','session_user')either. But the trailing null in
v$session.machine for Windows connections is a known problem. Bug 646174 shows
version 8.1.5. I tried in 9.2.0.1. It still exists:
SQL> select dump(machine) from v$session where machine = 'ICONIX\YONGHUANG';
no rows selected
SQL> select machine from v$session where machine like 'ICONIX\YONGHUANG_';
MACHINE
----------------------------------------------------------------
ICONIX\YONGHUANG
SQL> select dump(machine) from v$session where machine like
'ICONIX\YONGHUANG_';
DUMP(MACHINE)
