I know this might sound like a silly question - but have you read the DP
for Oracle User's Guide. There is a whole section on setting up the
scheduler with DP for Oracle. It walks you through all the steps for
dealing with root user vs. Oracle user.

We have never used crontab to perform the backups for Oracle, MS-SQL or
Domino/Notes.

We always use the scheduler to run the COMMAND on the client.
