If its giving the message " Insufficient Priviledges"
then try copying the init.ora file again from the
source to the server where r u wan't to create a
database. If u wan't to edit the init.ora file to
change some parameters, use edit, never use notepad
to edit the init.ora file. Opening init.ora file in
notepad might corrupt the init.ora.
