I'm not familiar with SCO Unixware, but I can tell you how it works on
Sun platforms. You will find the dbshut and dbstart scripts in
$ORACLE_HOME\bin after you've installed the Oracle 8i software. These
will stop and start the databases installed on your system. To get these
to run automatically on boot or shutdown of the server, you need to
create a link from /etc/rc2.d or /etc/rc3.d. These directories contain
the scripts that are executed at startup and shutdown. Have your sys
admin place the appropriate links to your dbshut and dbstart scripts.

HTH,
Brian

P.S. This post would have been better served if you had posted it to
comp.databases.oracle.server or comp.databases.oracle.misc
