OK, After sending this, I read a bit more on OTN docs and found this tidbit: ---------------from documentation------------ Account for running Oracle Universal Installer With Windows, you log in with Administrator privileges. You do not need a separate account. With UNIX systems, you must create this account manually. ---------------from documentation------------ So I guess that answers my question. :) On 4/10/07, Stephen Andert <andert@xxxxxxxxx> wrote:
Yes, I know the first one is "use *nix" but I am tired of fighting about it and my boss made the decision. The main question I have is whether to create an oracle-specific account or just use an administrator account.
