you can change permissions with 'chmod' but you need to be the owner of the file. So to give non-Oracle non-dba-group user read access you would login as the owner (Oracle) and issue:
look at the chmod man page for more info.

After glancing over /etc/passwd, I found the users account is different than mine and others who aren't having any issues. What's the difference between these two accounts? What's the "1 60 14 60" ?... (1 Reply)
My understanding is that Oracle DB licensing is based on number of cores etc. If you use virtual machines (e.g.ldoms) you need to partition it properly otherwise, in theory you have to pay based on the host machine.
Can anyone confirm I'm right here? And explain it in bit more detail (i.e.... (8 Replies)

logindevperm
logindevperm(4) File Formats logindevperm(4)NAME
logindevperm, fbtab - login-based device permissions
SYNOPSIS
/etc/logindevperm
DESCRIPTION
The /etc/logindevperm file contains information that is used by login(1) and ttymon(1M) to change the owner, group, and permissions of
devices upon logging into or out of a console device. By default, this file contains lines for the keyboard, mouse, audio, and frame buffer
devices.
The owner of the devices listed in /etc/logindevperm is set to the owner of the console by login(1). The group of the devices is set to the
owner's group specified in /etc/passwd. The permissions are set as specified in /etc/logindevperm.
Fields are separated by TAB and/or SPACE characters. Blank lines and comments can appear anywhere in the file; comments start with a hash-
mark, ` # ', and continue to the end of the line.
The first field specifies the name of a console device (for example, /dev/console). The second field specifies the permissions to which the
devices in the device_list field (third field) will be set. These permissions must be expressed in octal format. For example, O774. A
device_list is a colon-separated list of device names. Note that a device name must be a /dev link. A device entry that is a directory
name and ends with "/*" specifies all entries in the directory (except "." and ".."). For example, "/dev/fbs/*" specifies all frame buffer
devices.
Once the devices are owned by the user, their permissions and ownership can be changed using chmod(1) and chown(1), as with any other user-
owned file.
Upon logout the owner and group of these devices will be reset by ttymon(1M) to owner root and root's group as specified in /etc/passwd
(typically other). The permissions are set as specified in the /etc/logindevperm file.
