Hi ,
I did all these steps:
1. Create the Windows user:

start --> settings --> control panel --> administrative tools --> computer management --> user

2. Add the new user to the Oracle group:

start --> settings --> control panel --> administrative tools --> computer management --> groups

3. Add user to OS Database Administrator:

start --> programs --> oracle home --> configuration and migration tools --> administration for windows NT --> OS database administrator

4. Add user to OS Database Operators:

start --> programs --> oracle home --> configuration and migration tools --> administration for windows NT --> OS database operators

5. Add user to OS Administrator:

start --> programs --> oracle home --> configuration and migration tools --> administration for windows NT --> OS administrator

6. Add user to OS Operators:

start --> programs --> oracle home --> configuration and migration tools --> administration for windows NT --> OS operators

7. Add os_authent_prefix=OPS$ to your initialization parameters (pfile or spfile) and bounce Oracle database, if necessary.

and i bounced the db

and i still can't connect to sqlplus without password


so i am trying sqlplus "/as userthaticreated"
