[Squirrel-sql-users] Squirrel SQL Oracle OS authentication

[Magerman, T. <Tom...@ec...>]

We are using Oracle database 10G with OS user authentication, and
everything runs well with SLQ*Plus and Microsoft Access (ODBC linked
tables).

We are looking for a SQL front end, more user-friendly than SQL*Plus,
less overhead then Microsoft Access. I tested Squirrel and it looks
great.

One problem, how to connect as OS authenticated user? I use Oracle OCI
driver, but I cannot log on if I leave user or password blanc (it's a
problem I encounter with a lot of SQL front ends).

Any ideas? Logging on as OS authenticated user is crucial to us.
