| ℹ️ Check |

| View the cman.ora file in the ORACLE_HOME/network/admin directory. If the file does not exist, the database is not accessed via Oracle Connection Manager and this check is not a finding. If the entry and value for REMOTE_ADMIN is not listed or is not set to a value of NO (REMOTE_ADMIN = NO), this is a finding. |
