Joe,
If you are using os authenticated account for the only reason they can
connect like "connect /" and you are on 10g OCI client I would recommend you
to review Oracle Secure External Password Store feature. It's covered by EE
license. By implementing it you can hide password management from the
application completely and provide functionality to connect to the database
by issuing "connect /@<YOUR_DB>" syntax. Here you can find more details
about it.
