I think you missed the upgrade to 10G. I believe the rman files in 10G =
are
transportable (and usable) over different operating systems. In 9.2 they =
are
not. And although you use samba for transporting files, oracle knows =
nothing
about that and creates NT-files when you make a backup and tries to read
Linux files when restoring the database.=20
If you do upgrade to 10G, you can also use transportable tablespaces =
which
are transportable over operating systems (only in 10, not in 9.2) if the
tablespaces are 'self contained'. See
http://www.oracle.com/technology/pub/articles/10gdba/week16_10gdba.html =
for
a first look on the TTS feature.
Maybe the answer to your last question is yes, rethink ;-).
