I'm more of an Admin, and have been asked if there is a way to call a UNIX shell command from a PL/SQL trigger and get results back? Anyone know if this is possible?
Thanks!

Refer the oracle documentaion for plsql i/o(sample file deamon.sql). You can use a combination of a ProC program and dbms pipes to pass shell commands from within a plsql stored procedure.
