Hello,

When invoking DBCA, this is what I get:
----
../dbca
java.lang.NullPointerException

Did you verify that your network settings were configured correctly
before you installed Oracle? I have run into a similar problem in the
past when I installed Red Hat Enterprise Linux and it put the IP address
of my NAT in my hosts file instead of the actual IP address of my machine.
