I do not have further information for you. Sorry about this.
Based on the most current documentation, I cannot use this feature
successfully. Personally, I think that if Oracle wants this feature to be

that works for each of the Auth method, instead of relying on a blog that
was written in 2005.
I have already moved forward with other solutions.
