In-Depth Information
The tnsentry found in the tnsnames.ora file ( E ) is just a regular tnsentry , the
name defined here must match the parameter used with the createCredential
option of the mkstore command.
SCOTT_SECURE =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = alpha)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = beta)
)
)
And finally, the most interesting part of the procedure, using the credentials stored
for the particular tnsentry , a new connection is opened against the database
without exposing the database user name and its password ( F ).
sqlplus /@SCOTT_SECURE
It is then confirmed that the user has successfully opened a database session ( G ).
SQL> SHOW USER
USER is "SCOTT"
