utl_file

[Chris]

Hi,

Can anybody tell me if it's possible for Oracle to write out a file from a PL/SQL proc, (utl_file or whatever) without Oracle being the owner of the file created?

cheers

well if you give write permission to Oracle you should be able to write in that file

is this what u r asking?

Hi Pando.

No, what I want is for the to be written as if it was created by a different owner to Oracle. So effectively as if it was an oracle-owned file that had been chown-ed to another owner.
I reckon it probably isn't possible just thru' oracle and I'd need to use the OS, but I just wondered.

cheers

chris.
