Yes, as Paul said, you pretty much answered your own question: EUS is
the answer.
I'm not an expert in EUS, but David C. Knox is and he wrote a very
good book on the topic. If you're interested in EUS, then I'd suggest
you read chapter 5 « Identity Management and Enterprise Users » in his
book called « Effective Oracle Database 10g Security by Design » ISBN:
0-07-223130-0. It's a very good read and should help you understand
what it is and how to implemented it.
HTH,
David
