alter a user password via a database link

660270Sep 17 2008 — edited Jun 24 2009
Hi,

I need to alter a users password in plsql to a remote database.
I have a db link setup but cannot see how to execute the Alter user command so it willl execute in the remote database.

I was hoping to do ALTER USER@dblink1 user IDENTIFIED BY newpasssword but Oracle does not like the @dblink in the alter command.

Does anyone know a way around this?

Thanks
