If I remember correctly one of the examples given for the DBMS_PIPE package is a little utility that lets you call out and execute any UNIX command from PL/SQL. Basically it squirts the command down the pipe to a Pro*C program which does a UNIX system() call to execute the command. All the source is provided on the CD - but you'll need to have bought Pro*C of course.
