Assuming you're on Oracle 8i (you don't say):
1) select SYS_CONTEXT('USERENV','OS_USER') from dual;
2) I believe this is because the $ORACLE_HOME/bin/oracle executable has
an owner of "oracle" and has the sticky bit set on it's security. If you
"ls -l $ORACLE_HOME/bin/oracle", you should see the security on the file as
"-rwsr-s--x", with the "s" being the sticky bit. Try a "man chmod" for more
info.
HTH! :)

Hi all,
I've got 2 questions here : (Platform : Sun Solaris) :
1. What is the command in PL/SQL to get unix userID who logged in when I
execute PL/SQL
script ?
2. I have created a new user : ABC123, and the primary group is oinstall.
When I start oracle instance using ABC123, how come the process still
belong to another
user (oracle) ?
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated
Thanks & Regards
Herman
