 ***Oracle is currently working on an SR on this topic, while we are diagnosing the problem we are opening up this question to our user community so they can add perspective to the solution based on their real world experience***

 11.1.0.7/Oracle Solaris on SPARC (64-bit)

Note ID 834626.1 states that 'The changePerm.sh file is  not  available nor necessary for Oracle database server 11.1.0.x because in 11g, permissions under the Oracle Home (including "others") are set correctly/relaxed. However, cannot read e.g. tnsnames.ora file as DBA browse account is not a member of the oinstall or dba groups.

Is it okay to change the permissions on these files manually ? Or some better way ?

Howdy, Stranger!
