Private database logins are used primarily by administrators to gain direct access to a database. For example, the privileged user login that you use to access the P6 Professional database is a private database login. You can add, modify, or delete existing logins using the Database Logins tool.
P6 Professional includes an encryption algorithm that provides enhanced security for private database logins; however, when you manually configure your database, the database does not automatically enforce the encryption algorithm. If you manually configure your database, Oracle recommends that you use this encryption algorithm. To do so, you must reset the private database login. See Resetting Private Database Passwords for instructions. If you automatically configure your database, you do not need to configure the encryption algorithm.
User logins and passwords are not affected.
