Host Credentials

699363Sep 4 2009 — edited Sep 10 2009
OK, I'll bite. First, I'm brand new to Oracle. 2nd, I'm tryin gto set up a wallet for use with TDE and when I'm prompted to supply Net Services Administration: Host Login credentials, I have no clue what is required here. Can someone help out this absolute newbie?

I'm running under Windows.

Thank you.

You may want to start by reviewing http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14231/create.htm#sthref483

Host is the physical computer, machine, operating system ... but not the database.

So in general, 'Host Login Credentials' means 'what is the computer username and password (not database user/pwd) of the user who is to login on the host (machine) in order to do the work?'

In this case, it's probably the userid that owns Oracle .... surely you did not install the database as 'Administrator'.
