I have installed oracle 10g on solaris 10. In order to get started, I
want to run sqlplus. That's in
/export/home/oracle/product/10.2.0/Db_1/bin - but it turns out that all of
product, 10.2.0, Db_1 have permissions disabled for users (e.g.
drwxrwx---, with group oinstall).

Did I not finish the installation properly? Or am I supposed to enable
the permissions manually? Does anybody know how to use sqlplus?

My guess is that you didn't read and follow the installation docs.

Make the user(s) member of the secondary install group; on
default installs, that is the same as the primary group for the
installation user. Defaults are oracle for installation user, oinstall
as single group, osoper and osdba when using two groups.
In the latter case, your users should be member of osoper group

check it, using the id command

Hmmm. I'm not sure what that serves. There's no mention of sqlplus on
that page.

Presumably there's some other way to invoke the command line sqlplus than
simply from one's path - that's what this posting seems to want to taunt
with. Or, maybe the poster didn't really read the OP and is just gushing
forth.

Right, I could put everybody in oinstall. But somehow that doesn't seem
right to me.

Oh, but I'm not interested in using sqlplus via the browser, if that's
