Jay,
Here is our latest "standard" for creating 10.2 databases. We are still in evaluation mode (we run 3rd party applications here and getting everything certified is a beast). David's reply was hilarious! RTFM indeed! LOL!

Unfortunately as of 10.2 Oracle does not provide syntax for database creation (most of it is the same but I always worry about new features). All I found on Metalink were the instructions that if you *really* don't want to use DBCA then use DBCA to generate the scripts and run them yourself.
I did so and did a fair amount of modifying but I'm still a bit p***ed
off
about it.

Exactly. DBCA is a beast that should be put to sleep. It cruds the database up with stuff that you don't need, and that Oracle wants to charge you for. We never use it.

Better yet, just don't use the dbca.

This one will knock out vulnerabilities DB [17-25]: Steps for Manual De-installation of Oracle Spatial http://metalink.oracle.com/metalink/plsql/ml2_documents.showDocument?p_d atabase_id=NOT&p_id=179472.1
Basically, the schema mdsys is created by default in a dbca db, even if the spatial option is not being installed. In theory, the following:
SQL> drop user spatial cascade;
should do the trick.
The referenced doc was for 9i and not apparently updated for 10g.
As always, test on a destructo box first.
