oracle9 on sles9: problem cannot connect "/ as sysdba "

oracle9 on sles9: problem cannot connect "/ as sysdba "

Hello there,

I have installed oracle9 on sles9. it is configured, I have got a database
instance. But, and here is my problem:
I cannot connect with sqlplus "/ as sysdba"
I get the error:
ERROR:
ORA-01031 (See ORA-01031.ora-code.com): insufficient privileges

I am trying this with user oracle (main group: oinstall),
which is also member of group dba.

I can connect using sys/password, but it would be much nicer to
be able to connect to "/" , for example to use dbstart without putting
the sys password.

I thought the "/" authentication is made via the Linux user and membership in
dba group. what else needs to be configured?

Thanks in advance for any hints

Tilman
