I don't think it is a good habit to get into... When I set up Win2k boxes with Oracle the first thing I do is create a local admin account named oracle.
Should be reason enough that if Oracle says they won't support a domain account install there is probably a good reason for doing so. Unless you like paying for Oracle support for the fun of it. -----Original Message----- Sent: Tuesday, July 22, 2003 10:55 AM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L As our ops mgr is wont to say, "he's on crack". Nearly all of our Oracle installs on Win2k are by a domain user that may also be a domain admin. Never caused any problems, no one has ever asked.
