sys user pwd Understanding as sysdba

os : linux
oracle : 10.2.0.3

I am able to connect sys as sysdba No problem.

on Server terminal : sys is working with any pwd as sysdba.

SQL> connect sys/gln as sysdba
Connected.
SQL> show user
USER is "SYS"
SQL> connect sys/a as sysdba
Connected.
SQL> show user
USER is "SYS"
SQL> connect sys/b as sysdba
Connected.
SQL> show user
USER is "SYS"
SQL>

However if we connecting thru tnsnames it is validataing not allowing.

How to understand this.

connect sys/anypwd as sysdba is just nothing connect / as sysdba ?


SQL> connect system/anypwd as sysdba
Connected.
SQL> show user
USER is "SYS"

So sysdba is not a previlege but a role?

pl. clarify.
