Ken, Thank you for two things...giving credit where you deemed credit was due...and *especially* echoing your post-research results back to the list. You are -- and I mean this with some gratitude -- an excellent model for list behavior. Thanks.

Finally managed to fix my problem.  Thanks to Charlie Mengler, Christian Trassens, Djordje, Riyaj Shamsudeen, Ross Mohan, Terry Ball and Trivedi Hitarth who gave me many points to check (SQL*net config, $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/audit space and protection, TWO Task etc etc). It turns out that the problem was caused because I had somehow incorrectly specified the unix group at installation... of course in my post I specifically stated that this could not be the cause because I know how to install oracle!... never assume anything... As can be seen from the config.s file, something got messed up during install on 8.1.6... $ diff /Volumes/app/oracle/product/8.1.6/rdbms/lib/config.s /Volumes/app/oracle/product/8.1.7/rdbms/lib/config.s 23c23 < /* 0x0008       15 */         .ascii  "%s_dbaGroup%\0" --- > /* 0x0008       15 */         .ascii  "dba\0" 28c28 < /* 0x0014       22 */         .ascii  "%s_operGroup%\0" --- > /* 0x0014       22 */         .ascii  "dba\0" I changed it to the same as 8.1.7 and relinked... dba816 $ cd $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/lib dba816 $ make -f ins_rdbms.mk ioracle  - Linking Oracle rm -f /Volumes/app/oracle/product/8.1.6/rdbms/lib/oracle ld -o /Volumes/app/oracle/product/8.1.6/rdbms/lib/oracle -L/Volumes/app/oracle/product/8.1.6/rdbms/lib/ -L/Volumes/app/oracle/produ mv -f /Volumes/app/oracle/product/8.1.6/bin/oracle /Volumes/app/oracle/product/8.1.6/bin/oracleO mv /Volumes/app/oracle/product/8.1.6/rdbms/lib/oracle /Volumes/app/oracle/product/8.1.6/bin/oracle chmod 6751 /Volumes/app/oracle/product/8.1.6/bin/oracle All seems to be working perfectly now.  Two really good metalink docs on the subject... http://metalink.oracle.com/metalink/plsql/ml2_documents.showDocument?p_datab ase_id=NOT&p_id=69642.1 http://metalink.oracle.com/metalink/plsql/ml2_documents.showDocument?p_datab ase_id=NOT&p_id=1012572.6 Thanks again for all the help.
