On 10Gr2 it allow you to setup "dbconsole" standalong. we just migrate database from 9ir2 to 10Gr2 use "dbua". I tried to setup dbconsole: emca -config dbcontrol db It told me I don't have "sysman" account. Anyone know how to manually create "sysman" account on 10gr2 database and grant privieleges and setup objects on it? Thanks. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
