Re: moving from unix to NT

I haven't tried to do this with Oracle, I just knew that you could.

My use has been to change the account that is used for some of my monitors that need to see network drives. I've never had a need to make Oracle run as other than System.

As for UTL_FILE, I avoid it like the plague. Perl is much cleaner and easier to use.

Well, I was having all kinds of problems, when I was playing with this option, trying to make oracle service on nt to run under other then SYSTEM account. And yes, I granted this account any possible NT privilege (like ability to run/logon as a service), still didn't work.

Jared,

Could you share some details on this issue, if you still remember how you managed to make this working?
