An older version of this script was used for CFC certification on RHEL 2.1 - so things may have changed since then, but it's probably a reasonable start. I don't recall having to have the tweak the hostname; that sounds like a new thing to me. Also, I don't know all the possible ways to get Oracle running -- chances are excellent that this won't work except for an "iAS Infrastructure" installation. -- Lon
