I do not think the word oracle is embedded on any unix systems. Its just a
number of characters like any other word.
This misconception may have come up because too many oracle documentation
advice the use of oracle as best practice. Someone may then have inferred that
to mean, it has special treatment by the OS and a myth was born

Subject: Unix user Oracle
Hi folks,
Some friends mentioned something that I never heard before!!
Its when we create an unix user account, the "oracle" user account (spelled
like this) has some extra advantages (like priorities and privileges) on the
operating system instead of creating something like "oradb", "ora10g" or
whatever we create.
Looking for this info on the Internet, I didnt find, but if we consider
installing on Oracle Enterprise Linux perhaps might be truth!! ... just
guessing!
Has someone heard about this? Any recommended material?
Thanks a lot for any suggestions, opinion!
Alex
