Another thing is that the oracle user on both systems must have the same user id. Not sure if this is also required for the group. I've had no problems at all with copying ORACLE_HOME around under 8i, as long as I have kept all the names and ids the same. If the users have different ids, you will end up with seemingly inexplicable permission problems.
