Oops! I'm new to Oracle and I recently installed Oracle 8i under Solaris 2.6 and have
been stuck at the point that one must run catrep.sql as root. One problem, no where does teh documetation tell you how. BTW, root is not a user so cannot access Oracle SQL. Got a quick fix or incantation that will allow me to proceed. i.e start building databases and coding?
