Hello,

we are trying to create a database on an Win 2000 Server with Oracle 8.1.7, but we only get this error-log:

----------> snip <-----------------

O/S-Error: (OS 5) Access is denied.


----------> snap <-----------------

After this, we tried to create to db- and control-files on Drive C:\ at the same machine. We get the same error-messages, but the control-files where created by oracle. While connecting to the db, we get an error ORA-01092 (i think, this is ok, because the db was not created correctly)

We tried to create the database on several Machines with Win 2000 Server or Win 2000 Professional --> it´s ok On this Machines we tried it with 8.1.6, 8.1.7 and 9i without any problems.

Thank´s for any help
