Security professionals and practitioners need to keep up skills, and expand horizons and ideas about the infosec field. There are a few conferences that are extremely popular. However, there are a great many that are just as good (perhaps better), although not as well known. The University of Cambridge has developed a security conference database which mind give some pointers and help in finding new sources of knowledge and inspiration.
Hello,
I'm trying to login to an Oracle databse without entering the user/passwd. The server resides on an AIX 5.1 system, and using LDAP. I'm entering the following command
>sqlplus / @ORACLE_SID
This should work but for some odd reason I get a login denied.
But if I enter the user id... (1 Reply)
AU_CLASS(3) BSD Library Functions Manual AU_CLASS(3)NAME
getauclassent, getauclassent_r, getauclassnam, getauclassnam_r, setauclass, endauclass -- look up information from the audit_class database
LIBRARY
Basic Security Module Library (libbsm, -lbsm)
SYNOPSIS
#include <bsm/libbsm.h>
struct au_class_ent *
getauclassent(void);
struct au_class_ent *
getauclassent_r(struct au_class_ent *e);
struct au_class_ent *
getauclassnam(const char *name);
struct au_class_ent *
getauclassnam_r(struct au_class_ent *e, const char *name);
void
setauclass(void);
void
endauclass(void);
DESCRIPTION
These interfaces may be used to look up information from the audit_class(5) database, which describes audit event classes. Audit event
classes are described by struct au_class_ent.
The getauclassent() function will return the next class found in the audit_class(5) database, or the first if the function has not yet been
called. NULL will be returned if no further records are available.
The getauclassnam() function looks up a class by name. NULL will be returned if no matching class can be found.
The setauclass() function resets the iterator through the audit_class(5) database, causing the next call to getauclassent() to start again
from the beginning of the file.
The endauclass() function closes the audit_class(5) database, if open.

The OpenBSM implementation was created by McAfee Research, the security division of McAfee Inc., under contract to Apple Computer, Inc., in
2004. It was subsequently adopted by the TrustedBSD Project as the foundation for the OpenBSM distribution.
AUTHORS
This software was created by Robert Watson, Wayne Salamon, and Suresh Krishnaswamy for McAfee Research, the security research division of
McAfee, Inc., under contract to Apple Computer, Inc.
The Basic Security Module (BSM) interface to audit records and audit event stream format were defined by Sun Microsystems.
BUGS
These routines cannot currently distinguish between an entry not being found and an error accessing the database. The implementation should
be changed to return an error via errno when NULL is returned.
