RE: bbed?

Which is why it's password protected. But, let's not open that can of worms again....

To anyone who wants to know the password: If you really want to use it, you should be clever enough to find the password. Don't ask people to tell you what it is. ;-)

Bill,

        I just looked through a 10.2.0.2 system we have & did not find bbed either, but I followed the command to build it, namely make -f ins_rdbms.mk $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/lib/bbed in the $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/lib directory & the darned thing built as stated. And to boot there is a target in the make file for the stinker. I think this is one tool that could really cause a lot of trouble.

Someone just passed this on to me. I checked a coupl of my systems and didn't find it. It's an editor for modifying dbfs. The page:

<http://www.petefinnigan.com/weblog/archives/00000999.htm>

refers to ways of misusing the tool. The PDF paper has a few pages of instructions, then some interesting examples of the tool's uses starting on page 25.
