title: Ora -01031 insufficient privileges in Sql Developer Connection
body: <p>In oracle 11g Enterprise edition, I am able to connect to sys as sysdba via terminal.
  ( docs.google.com/file/d/0BxRqodN_w-mgZzdjVzgySUFuYUk/edit )</p>
  
  <p>But when I try to connect sys as sysdba via Sql Developer,
  the test returns "insufficient privileges" !!

  <p>I tried searching for the same. Some of the solutions suggested to edit the file sqlnet.ora.
  But I don't have such a file.
  What shall I do ? </p>
  
  <p>So I altered the Sys to login without sysdba requirement !
  But when I am trying to connection to dmuser on Data Miner, I am not able to connect to Sys when the login prompt for create repository appears.

  <p>So I am stuck with the SYS and Data Miner connection.
  Please help.</p>
