Normally Single Sign On in Oracle is arranged through a module called ORASSO. I know it is part of Oracle Application Server. I'm not aware it also is used in Oracle Apps/E-Business. You may want to find out on what other mechanisms (may it be Oracle Wallet, or Oracle Application Server itself) ORASSO relies. http://otn.oracle.com would be the primary source of information.
