# /usr/sbin/useradd -g oinstall -G dba,oper -d /home/oracle oracle


4. Enter the following command to set the password of the oracle user:

# passwd oracle

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib:/usr/X11R6/lib

ORACLE_BASE=/u01/app/oracle
ORACLE_HOME=$ORACLE_BASE/product/10.1.0/db_1
ORACLE_SID=orcl

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/jdk/jre/lib/i386:
$ORACLE_HOME/jdk/jre/lib/i386/server:
$ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/lib:$ORACLE_HOME/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range = 1024 65000
net.core.rmem_default = 4194304
net.core.rmem_max = 4194304
net.core.wmem_default = 262144
net.core.wmem_max = 262144
