trigger --> unix shell script question

Hi,



Can anyone out there tell me how to have a trigger execute a unix shell
script.  For instance, is there a way in a PL/SQL block to break out
into the operating system to execute a file/script?  I've reviewed the
DBMS utilities and did not find anything that looked like it would work.



Thanks in advance!



PS - in case my specific operating system matters, I am running Oracle
7.3.4 on a Sun Solaris 2.6 system.



Jason
