What are the steps for renaming a database? I took the trace file and created a sql script to create a new controlfile. In the sql script for creating the controlfile I changed the database name. However when I try the script the error message is that the info in the header files do not match. What am I missing in this procedure?

Oracle 8.0.6 on NT.
