One is mod_plsql DAD configuration file (wdbsvr.app) the other (.dbc)
is the secure file for identifying and storing the connect descriptor 
for the database.

Hi Anand,

the .dbc file is actually the database connector descriptor file used to
connect to database and this file is default located in $FND_TOP/secure
directory, this file is quite important as whenever  any program likes to
connect to database like forms it uses dbc file where teh Guest_user_pwd is
there when the guest user connect it does not allow it to directly connect
ot to the database but it first connect goes via this file and cross verify
teh password of the guest which is kept in this file. 

and the wdbsvr.app is the password file of your apps means if you want to
modify your apps password tehn you can make changes in this file.

I think if any other explaination is there the do please comment on this 

Thanks & Regards
