I have to say that the newsgroup comp.oracle.databases.server is much
more NT Friendly.
(IOUG: Did anything happen from IOUG concerning the ORACLE-NT-L mailing
list?)
Not just Jonathan Lewis, but Sybrand Baker, Howard Rodgers, Ricky
Sanchez put out some pretty good stuff.
I'd post to the ORACLE-L from work - but its a long story.
Basically, I'm subscribed at work in DIGEST mode, but I can't get out of
it.
So I post when I get home from the home mail account that I can't use
from work.
Yes, most of the newsgroup is junk, but lately, I'd say that the
signal-to-noise ratio is comperable to ORACLE-L.
Best thing is - its threaded. Email just plain sucks. Threading rules
(not in an OS - just in messages).
and there's (practically) no lag.
So in a deathmatch, the interested newsgroup readers/posters would have
won the competition 2 hours before the first post was received by all
the ORACLE-L subscribers.
just my opinion.
the attached is typical for the material I see in the newsgroup.

If you installed the Oracle Administration Assistant for Windows NT,
there is a panel that contains a radio button as to selecting the
shutdown mode ('normal','immediate','abort').
to access it select:
Start - Programs - Oracle-Ora81 - Database Administration - Oracle
Administration Assistant for Windows NT
under the 'Databases' node, right click on the particular database and
select "startup shutdown options"
in the "Oracle Instance" panel, you have a checkbox for "Shut down
instance when service is stopped"
under that is the radio button set for the shutdown options.
click ok - and close the MMC console.
If you are running W2K server or Pro - MMC is included.
If you are running NT4 - you need to have installed the MMC for the
Oracle Admin Asst plug-in.
hth,
Paul
