I installed oracle 9.0.1 on windows 2003 enterprise edition sp1 (with oracle database enterprise & software only.)
when i goto the command prompt and type sqlplus /nolog and startup nomount it give me an error
ORA-01031: insufficient privileges
I have checked in windows for the user group called ORA_DBA
I login into windows 2003 using administrator
and administrator is added in the ora_dba group
i used orapwd utility to create a password file with path as d:\oracle\ora90\database. this is where my oracle is installed.
even i changed the remote_login_passwordfile to exclusive in the initSID.ora folder
also my initSID.ora is placed in the same database folder
please help me logon to Oracle.

You cannot startup if you are not logged.
You have to sqlplus '/ as sysdba'

Check you have the following line in your sqlnet.ora:
SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES = (NTS)
