No, it does not need to. If you connect through sqlnet (that is: a listener
running as oracle which starts the oracle
binary), no sgid/suid needs to be set. But if you then try to connect directly
by issueing sqlplus username/password, it will fail with 'Oracle not
available'. The latter is mostly not really a problem.

Cheers
