Thanks for all the quick responses.

Are you perhaps starting oracle databases via system startup? I.e.
/sbin/init.d? If that's the case, you probably have a su - oracle -c
"command" in that script, so there is no tty associated with the process.

        Had the following tty entry in my su log:
         
        SU 01/25 03:13 + tty?? root-oracle
         
         
        Can anyone clue me into what tty?? is and where to look for
additional information?
         
        Thanks
