Is Oracle not a proprietary piece of software? Don't think it's available openly for download, doubt anyone here is gonna help you circumvent copyright laws!

What about a MySQL database, or PostgreSQL? They are excellent open source RDBMS.

As a developer you can download Oracle to do development work - you need a licence to use it in a commercial environment. There's more info on the Oracle site.

As far as installing it goes, you might be able to tweak the info at http://www.puschitz.com/ for Solaris, but I haven't tried that myself (it works for Redhat, Suse, Fedora and Slackware though).
