Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Unix ownership/group of files created via Oracle
Assuming that a script is creating the NON-Oracle files. That script could
be set with a SUID bit. The script file could be owned by Oracle and a
'chmod 4555' would set permissions so no matter who executes it, and files
created/written are done so as 'Oracle'.

We have an application where text files are created and read by both Oracle processes and an in house application .
Files created by Oracle processes have ownerships of oracle and group dba.
Files created by the in house application are owned by another user and group.
Systems admin do not want to make any other user a member of Oracle dba group.
Nor do they want to see files with 666 permissions.
What is the usual approach in these situations?
John
