I'm not sure what you mean. You cannot invoke these remote shell commands from PL/SQL except via a pipe or an external procedure. The ability to invoke them from an external procedure should only be possible if I make procedures for them
in the package for which I am granting execute permission.

How about using rsh or rksh to execute commands at OS level?
