Aarrghhhh!



Do Oracle processes always run as the oracle user?



I  need to read a file via utl_file that is owned by another user and is
read only to that user, i.e 400 permissions.



This is the way the Unix system admin is set up. Unix systems admin has
assigned a user and directories for me to use and this file can only be read
only for that user.How can I get Oracle to read it....can I change the user
that oracle runs as to run as an application user?
