utl_file_dir parameterutl_file_dir = /directory/users -----Original Message-----
From: root_at_fatcity.com [mailto:root_at_fatcity.com]On Behalf Of Baylis, John Sent: Tuesday, October 17, 2000 5:26 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Subject: utl_file_dir parameter

We would like to create files in various directories on HP unix using the utl_file package

Since what we really need is

       utl_file_dir = /directory/users/*                  which does not

work,

and we do not want to specify the following due to security reasons, is there any alternative methods that are available to accomplish this?

utl_file_dir = *

Are there other techniques or work arounds?
