Bob,

1).  Windows workstations.
2).  We use putty with ssh enabled.
3).  No Xwindows here.  We do not manage the Unix box itself - just the

databases. There is another group responsible for the OS environment. 4). We use SqlPlus, OEM and Toad to manage the databases. Sqlplus with .bat scripting on the desktop for application installations (stored objects, table creations etc.).

This all works well for us. We use file shares for all of our database create script and object management. Nothing is on the Unix box for creating the database. Unix ksh scripts/cron for running backups and gather stats jobs.

So basically, we work in the NT world to create and maintain database schema objects. Also to create the database create scripts (we don't use the Oracle tools to create or migrate databases). Unix scripting for database server scripting.

Hope this helps.

Subject: UNIX environment

All

I've always worked in a windows client server environment so I'd like to get some information from those working in UNIX and Linux. My questions are:

These questions are based on file manipulation, database creation, script writing and execution, setting permissions etc.

IN UNIX I'm assuming the server is UNIX and your workstations are either windows or Linux, True? What is the "typical" client in a UNIX environment?
If you are using a different OS on the workstation, you must be using a terminal emulator, such as putty or telnet or the like. Which one do you use? My guess in putty or telnet or even Cygwin would be crude at best.
If you're on UNIX do you use xwindows? On linux do you use a window manager such as gnome or kde?
If you have a windows client what is a good "shell" tool to manage the server?

Any insight would be appreciated!

Thanks
Bob
