The high water mark for the rollback segments is preventing you from shrinking the files.
Use "alter rollback segment <SEGMENT_NAME> storage ( optimal <OPTIMAL_SIZE>) "
to set an optimal size for the segment, then use 'alter rollback segment <SEGMENT_NAME> shrink'
to shrink the rollback.
You may want to unset the optimal size when done by using NULL for the optimal size.
I haven't tried this on a rollback segment with the intent of shrinking the data files, so I'm not sure
it will do the trick.
In that case, you can either just create a new rollback tablespace with new rbs segments, and
then drop the old ones, or just drop all but the first of the rollback segments, then try your
shrink of the datafile, and recreate the rbs segments.
If you create a new tablespace, keep in mind that there may be scripts ( backup, etc) with the
tablespace name hardcoded in them. Bad form, but it happens.

I have a client where rollback segments were set up RBS01-RBS05, all in a
tablespace called RBS. The person who set it up set %INCREASE at 50%. Well,
I shrank the segments to themselves down to less than 500MB total from
4.6GB! But in using ALTER DATABASE DATAFILE . . . RESIZE . . . it won't let
me resize it at all (it has extents scattered throughout). Anyone know how I
go about shrinking it? Do I have to create a new tablespace/datafile, then
drop the old one?
TIA,
