Jason,

Give this a try. You can prefix your table names for all tables. By
doing that you should get around any naming issues.  In your
environment.rb add the following:

Rails::Initializer do |config|
  config.table_name_prefix :oracle_sucks
  ## other fun configurations
end

Just kidding about the prefix by the way... I thought I would toss my
joke in the ring too... :-)  I would use something very short like os,
or just o to ensure I didn't bump into Oracle's name length limit
which I think is 32.

Hope that helps, let me know if it works. Oracle is in my future as well.

Carl
