Hi there,

I have started to setup an Oracle Server on Windows NT 4.0. My problems are the following:

After installing the server on my PC I want to create my own database (offcourse). The problem is I don't know what tool to user to create a database under oracle or which files to modify??? Another problem is that every Oracle tool (like Server Manager) needs me to login. When I installed the Oracle Server I had to give a username and a password and a database entry. The settings I filled in during the installation appear not to work??? And I also have to give a Service Name which I don't know what it means????

If anybody can give me some hints or a reference to some documents that can help me out for creating a database under Oracle and configure it afterwards, I would be very happy????
