ORA28001 - password expired - how to let a user change it

Post by upscene » Thu 16 Jun 2005 07:39

Hi,

Is there a way to let a user change its own expired password?

According to the Oracle newsgroups, this should be possible either by using an OCI function or by executing ALTER USER. But ODAC raises an exception and there's no connection yet ...

Any ideas?

Hmmm - I found the "TOraSession.ChangePassword" function, but this appears to fail on NET connections with "function not supported".

Correct?

Bugger, yet another item not supported with NET connections :(

You are right it's a Net option limitation. We plane to do add this functionality but not in the nearest future.
