Why mix OS's? Why not running oracle on your linux box? What IS your
strategy? What are you importing when you get corrupt data blocks? This
being the (somewhat) longer version of the answer to your 'rethink strategy'
question.

I think you missed the upgrade to 10G. I believe the rman files in 10G = are
transportable (and usable) over different operating systems. In 9.2 they =
are not. And although you use samba for transporting files, oracle knows =
nothing about that and creates NT-files when you make a backup and tries to
read Linux files when restoring the database.=20 If you do upgrade to 10G,
you can also use transportable tablespaces = which are transportable over
operating systems (only in 10, not in 9.2) if the tablespaces are 'self
contained'. See
http://www.oracle.com/technology/pub/articles/10gdba/week16_10gdba.html =
for a first look on the TTS feature.

Maybe the answer to your last question is yes, rethink ;-).
