Host credentials

[ranagman]

In Oracle 10g, I've put in my OS username and password and it gives me error saying that it's the wrong passowrd. I've tried the oracle username and password and still doesn't verify the name and password. What am i doing wrong?

Please take care in future no to repeat the mistake .
Thank you

In oracle OS username and database user name are diferent.
when oracle i installed on the system,by default it creates around 23 users.
These accounts must be unlocked at the time of installation (which are locked by default.) so use the user namepassword and the host string (name of the database).

for ex

username----SCOTT
password----TIGER
hoststring----ORCL
