Hello,

you have to put the "UTL_FILE_DIR" initialization parameter in your parameter file (initX.ora).
If you want more directories to be accessable, repeat the parameter. Beware, don't put any other parameters between different utl_file_dir parameters, or only the last utl_file_dir will be read.
If you want, you can set utl_file_dir = *, but that means that everyone can access every directory... : be carefull with that.
See Oracle Manuals :
"http://otn.oracle.com/docs/products/oracle8i/doc_library/817_doc/server.817/a76961/ch1188.htm#7036"

Success,

epe
