1.2 Copyright

The Oracle Database HOWTO copyright (c) 1998, Paul Haigh.

Like all Linux HOWTO documents, this may be reproduced and distributed in whole or in part, in any medium, physical or electronic, so long as this copyright notice is retained on all copies.

Commercial redistribution is allowed and encouraged; however the author would like to be notified of such distributions. You may translate this HOWTO into any language whatsoever provided that you leave this copyright statement and disclaimer intact, and that you append a notice stating who translated the document.

1.3 Disclaimer

While I have tried to include the most correct and up to date information available to me, I cannot guarantee that usage of information in this document does not result in loss of data or equipment. I provide NO WARRANTY about the information in the HOWTO and I cannot be made liable for any consequences resulting from using the information in this HOWTO.

1.4 本 HOWTO 的目的

在这 HOWTO 中我会尝试说明如何安装及管理一个在 Linux 上执行的 Oracle 资料库,我会特别说明 Oracle 伺服器的安装,SQL*Net 的设定及用户 (client) 的设定。

这文件并不是一份有关使用及管理一个 Oracle 资料库的入指引。如果你想要这类资料,O'Reilly 及其他出版商都有推出这方面的佳作。

我也不会说明在 Unix 上 Oracle 程式的开发过程。如果你对这有绝对需要,我建议你从 SCO 处购买 SCO development system (包括 OpenServer 5.x)。据我所知,这可以十分合理的十九块美元从 www.sco.com 得到。

1.5 系统要求

要跟从这篇 HOWTO 的内容,你需要以下东西。

1.6 Oracle Corporation 的新消息

Oracle 屈服於来自 Linux 社群的压力。Oracle Corporation 已经决定向在 Linux 平台的 Oracle 8 提供官方支援。据 Oracle 网址说,这将会在一九九八年十二月推出。

更好的消息是 Oracle 会把 Oracle 应用软件移植到 Linux 平台。根据 Oracle 的网页,这应该会在一九九九年上半年推出。
