Re: how to hide oracle password from a unix ps -ef | grep?

[Tanel Poder]

Few ideas:   1) sqlplus /nolog    connect user/[EMAIL PROTECTED]   2) . $HOME/.orapwd    sqlplus user/[EMAIL PROTECTED]   (.orapwd script has to set environment variable ORAPWD to the password)   3) sqlplus [EMAIL PROTECTED] < $HOME/.orapwd   (.orapwd must contain one line, the password)   Tanel.   ----- Original Message ----- From: Ryan To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Sent: Friday, January 16, 2004 8:04 PM Subject: how to hide oracle password from a unix ps -ef | grep? Is there a way to log into sqlplus without the username and password available to anyone who wants to grab it?
