We just installed oracle 7.2.2 on a RS/6000 (AIX 3.2.5) machine. We also created a database using the installer. In addition to oracle users, sys and system, we found a user NAMES. Obviously NAMES is created by the installer, but we do not know what it is for. Our guess is that it is
used by Oracle*Names server, but not quite sure, since we do not use the product. Any one who can shed light on this will be appreciated. Received on Tue Mar 12 1996 - 00:00:00 CET
