I installed Oracle 8.0.5 on Red Hat Linux6.0 according to the notes at http://jordan.fortwayne.com/oracle/rh6x.html

I have some questions. Some are UNIX-related.

  1. What's the password for the users Adams etc. in the sample database. I know it's tiger for Scott.
  2. How can I press the UP arrow to show previous commands at the SQL> prompt? When I press UP, it shows ^[[A.
  3. My stty is set correctly at shell prompt but not in SQL*Plus. Every time I get into SQL*Plus, I have to type "host stty erase ^H" to use Backspace to delete.
  4. "help" (or anything like "help select") in SQL*Plus is not available. I followed the above-said instruction to install Oracle documentation.
  5. A UNIX question. Every time I logon to UNIX either as root or oracle or me, ~/.profile is not run automatically (shell is bash). So I have to manually ". .profile" every time I open a terminal window.
  6. Is it possible to move Scott's tables from SYSTEM tablespace to USERS tablespace? ALTER TABLE seems to have the keyword TABLESPACE in its clause together with PARTITION. I wonder if I have to export and import.

Thanks very much for help.
