Nessus has reported Oracle Security Patch #68 is missing. How can I verify either the patch has been installed, or it hasn't?
Thanks.
Joe

Use opatch oracle utility
This Oracle patch utility available for Oracle 9.2.x is installed by downloading & unzipping file p2617419_210_GENERIC.zip (which creates sub-directory Opatch -- e.g., $ORACLE_HOME/Opatch.)
optach is very handy for checking which patches have been applied to a particular $ORACLE_HOME -- viz (ex. from webctdb):
eg:
$ opatch lsinventory
Using ORACLE_HOME/oui to look up oui libs...
...snip...
Accessing inventory... This may take up to 300 seconds.
...snip...
Retrieving inventory.
