BDE Problem connecting to ORACLE using NT Authentication (HELP)

How to connect to an ORACLE database from BDEAdmin using NT
 Authentication???.

 I created an Oracle user and selected "external" (Operating System
 Authentication) option to connect to Database instead "password" (Oracle
 Authentication). In order to connect to that Database from BDEAdmin I'm
giving Blank User Name and  Password  blank password in login prompt, but
BDEAdming is giving me an error message.
"Invalid User Name or password". What I'm doing wrong here ???

Can somebody help me pleace ????

Thank you very much
 Jesus

I responded to this question once before, and we were not able to get it
to work.  Unless someone else tells you the contrary, you may assume
that it will not work.

1. check user name parameter in alias - it also has to be blank
2. better use explicit login, because implicit login is a big security hole.
