Peopletools 8.50.06 on Linux

The Peopletools 8.50.06 is a patch, available on ftp://ftp.peoplesoft.com/outgoing/ptools/85006/
This is a zip file password protected, only available if you have an access to the support on https://support.oracle.com
This is an optional step for study prupose, but more than recommended for other environements.

1. The installation must be done within the user you've used for the Peopletools installation
At this step you'll need the license code from (depending of the database type you are working on - I'm still puzzle why not simply ask for the database type instead of those codes) http://licensecodes.oracle.com/ent_keys_by_prod.html#PeopleTools
The license code are same for production usage.
