I would avoid using a domain account, but you can create a local
account (call it "oracle" for example) and add it to the DB server's
ORA_DBA and Administrators groups. Then create the same account (and
password) on the machine that you want to access and ensure that it has
rights to the files/shares of interest. On the DB server, you can run
the Oracle service under the newly created local account by going into
the services properties page, clicking the "Logon" page, selecting
"This account:" and entering the local ID (example: DBServer\Oracle).
That should do it. Like I said, I would avoid the domain-level account
unless that's your only option (for some reason, I believe domain-level
would be bad, or at least not as good as local; if anyone has any facts
to support or refute that thought, let me know).
