That bit *does* sound familiar.  I've only played with RMAN, not yet
in production here.

Maybe one of the local RMAN gurus can straighten us out here.

I thought that the target database was the one being backed up, at least
that is what you put in the target statement.   The rcvcat(8.0.x) or rcat
(8i) is the database which hold the recovery catalog.  It has to be the 
same
or higher version than the target.
