Need help on setup replication server

Hi All,

I am trying to setup a testing replication on oracle 8.1.5 on solaris 2.7.

I bought the
Oreilly book
oracle distributed systems by CHarles dye.

I try to follow the setup.

1. svrmgrl
   @catproc.sql
   
2. as SYS

@catrep.sql

@catrepad.sql (could not find this script in rdbms subdirectory.)

THen I think OK,
 I will keep going.

Until later on I have to do:

execute dbms_repcat_admin.grant_admin_any_schema('REPADMIN_USER');

Then it complaint the package body is NOT VALID, and I try

alter package dbms_repcat_admin compile;

It error out...

I did get the replication document from Oracle and start reading it. It is pretty confusing.

If anyone has setup replication for Oracle 8, could you give me some guide or some white papers?

Thanks a lot in advance,
Please email me directly to dominica_at_secondhat.com
