The Manual say to enter the user name and password you specified during installation, and it should be INTERNAL or have INTERNAL equivalent privileges.

well, its installed with account: system but when i tried to connect via de backup manager, it doesn't show anything.

btw arcserve version 9 and oracle version 9.x

Account system??? Try it again and this time follow the Manual.
