Hide password on unix "PS" command
Hello, We are running an Oracle 9.2.0.4 instance with serveral SQLPLUS sessions. The problem is when you run the "PS" unix command (ie. ps -fu | grep sqlplus), the username and password is displayed. How do I hide the password? Is there an Oracle or Unix option that needs to be turned on ? Please advise. Thanks.

One way is to provide OS authication for the user running the job. That way a passwd wont be necessary to login to sqlplus

Are users connecting with "sqlplus username/password@sid" at the UNIX command line? If so, try using only "sqlplus" or "sqlplus username@sid" and then enter the password inside of the SQL*Plus shell window.
