Even those of us with cursed systems have vpn access to our servers. :)

Well, one of the easiest ways, assuming you are not cursed with a windows database, is to provide a vpn solution for access to the servers. A vpm typically gives you an address on the network you vpn into. From this point standard client tools work. If you are cursed with windows then you can put a decent telnet server on the windows box, cygwin I think will work, if you need direct access or use client tools if you don't. There are also tools like Damware and VNC to manage windows servers remotely. If you have linux or unix then cygwin, Reflections, Hummingbird, a linux box, an xterm or someother unix workstation will be all you need.

   If you visit the web sites of vendors that provide this type of service, you may find the white papers you desire. I went to Google and typed Oracle remote dba and found a lot of sites.

   In general terms, these companies work by first getting to know your site, having one of their employees come to your site for a week or two. Then they require you to install some monitoring software like BMC Patrol. Then you work together to set some guidelines on what they will monitor and what action they will take under certain circumstances. In addition, they can perform "staff augmentation" tasks as you desire. For example, if your site doesn't have the staff to upgrade to a newer Oracle version, they can plan that task and perform the upgrade.
