Hi all,
Here is the oracle user shadow line in /etc/shadow
<pre>
<B>oracle:Lic8CakzDxM3o:11529:0:28:24::: <B>
username The user's login name (UID).
password A 13-character encrypted password for the user, a
lock string to indicate that the login is not
accessible, or no string, which shows that there
is no password for the login.
lastchg The number of days between January 1, 1970, and
the date that the password was last modified.
min The minimum number of days required between pass-
word changes.
max The maximum number of days the password is valid.
warn The number of days before password expires that
the user is warned.
So, if the maximum number of days the password is valid is = 28, does that mean that the password has expired?? No-one has changed the password, and I can switch to 'oracle' from 'root' using 'su - oracle' fine.
Also the variables can seen below:
$ whoami
oracle
$ env |grep ORACLE
ORACLE_BASE=/u01/app/oracle
ORACLE_SID=CLFY
ORACLE_DOC=/u01/app/oracle/product/8.1.6/doc
ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/product/8.1.6
--------------------------------------------------------------------
$ env |grep oracle
PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/ucb:/etc:/u01/app/oracle/product/8.1.6/bin:/usr/bin:/etc:/usr/ccs/bin:/usr/openwin/bin:/usr/local/bin
ORACLE_BASE=/u01/app/oracle
CLASSPATH=/u01/app/oracle/product/8.1.6/jdbc/lib/class/classes111.zip:
LOGNAME=oracle
ORACLE_DOC=/u01/app/oracle/product/8.1.6/doc
HOME=/home/oracle
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=:/u01/app/oracle/product/8.1.6/lib:/u01/app/oracle/product/8.1.6/jdbc/lib:/u01/app/oracle/product/8.1.6/lib:/u01/app/oracle/product/8.1.6/jdbc/lib:/u01/app/oracle/product/8.1.6/lib:/u01/app/oracle/product/8.1.6/jdbc/lib
ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/product/8.1.6
PWD=/home/oracle
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
$ set |grep ORACLE
ORACLE_BASE=/u01/app/oracle
ORACLE_DOC=/u01/app/oracle/product/8.1.6/doc
ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/product/8.1.6
ORACLE_SID=CLFY
Do you think that I still have to set the variables in the script. The script can be seen above in past thread. I believe that it is something to do with the password, what do you think ??
Thanks for your help!

CHING(6) Games Manual CHING(6)
NAME
ching, fortune - the book of changes and other cookies
SYNOPSIS
/usr/games/ching [ hexagram ]
/usr/games/fortune
DESCRIPTION
The I Ching or Book of Changes is an ancient Chinese oracle that has been in use for centuries as a source of wisdom and advice.
The text of the oracle (as it is sometimes known) consists of sixty-four hexagrams, each symbolized by a particular arrangement of six
straight (---) and broken (- -) lines. These lines have values ranging from six through nine, with the even values indicating the broken
lines.
Each hexagram consists of two major sections. The Judgement relates specifically to the matter at hand (E.g., "It furthers one to have
somewhere to go.") while the Image describes the general attributes of the hexagram and how they apply to one's own life ("Thus the supe-
rior man makes himself strong and untiring.").
When any of the lines have the values six or nine, they are moving lines; for each there is an appended judgement which becomes signifi-
cant. Furthermore, the moving lines are inherently unstable and change into their opposites; a second hexagram (and thus an additional
judgement) is formed.
Normally, one consults the oracle by fixing the desired question firmly in mind and then casting a set of changes (lines) using
yarrow-stalks or tossed coins. The resulting hexagram will be the answer to the question.
Using an algorithm suggested by S. C. Johnson, the Unix oracle simply reads a question from the standard input (up to an EOF) and hashes
the individual characters in combination with the time of day, process id and any other magic numbers which happen to be lying around the
system. The resulting value is used as the seed of a random number generator which drives a simulated coin-toss divination. The answer is
then piped through nroff for formatting and will appear on the standard output.
For those who wish to remain steadfast in the old traditions, the oracle will also accept the results of a personal divination using, for
example, coins. To do this, cast the change and then type the resulting line values as an argument.
The impatient modern may prefer to settle for Chinese cookies; try fortune.

DIAGNOSTICS
The great prince issues commands,
Founds states, vests families with fiefs.
Inferior people should not be employed.
BUGS
Waiting in the mud
Brings about the arrival of the enemy.
If one is not extremely careful,
Somebody may come up from behind and strike him.
Misfortune.
