Re: User trace files

This depends on O/S and most likely also on version. For 8.1.5 on wintel, the files are located on in the directory pointed to by the user_dump_dest parameter (you could check that in the v$parameter view) and the file is named ora0<n>.trc, where is the system process id (spid) of the background session.
You can obtain the spid by the following query: select spid
from v$session s, v$process p
where p.addr = s.paddr
and s.audsid = userenv('sessionid')
(This is not going to work for SYS sessions, as those don't have an unique audsid)
