Re: Question on how to setup Oracle 8 in NT

OEM does more than backups using rman though. It contains many GUI tools for admin that you might find useful. If you are installing a db before 8i, I think that the installer will install OEM for you (in 8i OEM is a separate product). You can use most of the OEM tools without launching OEM, that way you will not need a repository. As for the WWW-db connections, all depends how you want to get to the data.
