System can definitely grant privileges in another schema before 9. It just takes some
preparation.
As system create a procedure in the other schema
CREATE OR REPLACE procedure <other_schema>.grantit
(privilege in varchar2, object in varchar2, grantee in varchar2) is
begin
execute immediate ('grant ' ||privilege ||' on ' ||object ||' to ' ||grantee);
end;
/
Then as system invoke it as
exec <other_schema>.grantit(<privilege>, <object>, <grantee>)
This works beause the procedure runs under the security domain of the "other user",
and of course because system has the ability to create and execute privileges in
other schemas.
Are you on 9.0.1 or 9.2? I thought the ability to do the granting without using a
procedure was available beginning with 9.2.

haven't tried it with SYS but in 9i SYSTEM (maybe any account with DBA privs -- have
to try it) can definitely grant privileges on other owner's objects.
Makes my scripts that have to pass through a hosting company easy now... they have the
system password, and I don't have to tell anyone the schema owner password
