Encryption of passwords

I have a table storing names, userids and passwords. I need a way to encrypt the passwords without having to dedicate the names as database users and letting Oracle handle the password encryption. The front-end application reads this table, but if one were to connect to SQL*Plus they could view the passwords.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks
