UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers

hi,

I have this basic query.
I have created a new user on unix.
I have given home directory and permission through chmod to create directory stucture.
Now need to connect sqlplus. What permissions should we give, so that this works?

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,
Neha

i dont know about sql.but useradd command is same in all flavours.diff is only in dir.if ur in solaris excute this cmd.
#useradd -u <uid> -g <gid> -G <GID/G.NAME> -c <comment> -d </export/home/user1> -m -s </bin/sh> user1

u --> uid --> user identification
g --> gid --> group " " (primary group)
G --> GID --> " " (secondary ") no need to give this GID
c -- --- ---> comment(if u give ur name also) no need to give this c
d --> directory
m --> making home dir for user
s --> shell.no need to give this shell it will take by default.

in hp-ux the -d is </home/user>
in linux " "
ok na..no appreciate.
