Oracle9i/Win newbie questions

I just installed Oracle 9i for Windows XP-Pro. I chose to install the "Standard Edition". I have a few newbie questions:

  1. What is a hoststring (when I try to start SQL-Plus) ? I left "hoststring" blank, and signed in as user=Scott pw=Tiger.
  2. Does starting SQL-Plus also start a database ?
  3. Did I need to create a regular user when I did the installation, or can I do that any time as SYS or SYSTEM ?
  4. Do I need to re-install as something higher than "Standard Edition" in order to install JDeveloper ?

Thanks for any help. (I took a couple of Oracle classes over 2 years ago, but never really put anything into practice, so I appreciate any patience in answering these questions.) Received on Fri Aug 08 2003 - 22:12:55 CDT
