At this point, the server admins don't want us to install any additional 
software on the server.  They didn't give a reason why.  Perhaps just laziness? 
 I do like the idea of using the client, tho.  It keeps people out of the 
oracle db home.  I'll see if I can lean on that idea more with the server 
admins.

Some reason why you cant just install the oracle client and let the user use 
the sqlplus there?

Hey all,

I've got an issue trying to get a user to source (and use) sqlplus from an 
oracle database environment.  We're not allowed to use sticky bits.  We're not 
allowed to add the user to the dba group.  We're not allowed to use any sudo 
commands.

I'm running 10.2.0.4 in AIX 5.3.7.  Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance!

Jeremy
