Ora -01031 insufficient privileges in Sql Developer Connection

In oracle 11g Enterprise edition, I am able to connect to sys as sysdba via terminal. ( docs.google.com/file/d/0BxRqodN_w-mgZzdjVzgySUFuYUk/edit )

But when I try to connect sys as sysdba via Sql Developer, the test returns "insufficient privileges" !! https://docs.google.com/file/d/0BxRqodN_w-mgZVdvRi1ocUpqVXM/edit

I tried searching for the same. Some of the solutions suggested to edit the file sqlnet.ora. But I don't have such a file. What shall I do ?

So I altered the Sys to login without sysdba requirement ! But when I am trying to connection to dmuser on Data Miner, I am not able to connect to Sys when the login prompt for create repository appears. https://docs.google.com/file/d/0BxRqodN_w-mgUURJYmhSODc0Z3c/edit (This Dialog Box keeps recurring and I am not able to proceed forward)

So I am stuck with the SYS and Data Miner connection. Please help.

What is the value of your REMOTE_LOGIN_PASSWORDFILE database parameter? Normally it should be EXCLUSIVE.

Another issue may be if your password file has been created with nosysdba=Y option which would prevent connecting remotely as sysdba.
