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.
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 ;-).
