[Quoted] In the following example the machine name is "pythia", the user name is "oracle". Note the prompt once SQL*Plus is invoked. Hope this helps....

[pythia:oracle]: cat $ORACLE_HOME/sqlplus/admin/glogin.sql rem glogin.sql
rem
rem SQL*Plus global login startup file. rem
rem This is the global login file for SQL*Plus. rem Add any sqlplus commands here that are to be rem executed when a user invokes sqlplus rem
set termout off
column glogin_prompt noprint new_value _glogin_prompt select substr(program,instr(program,'_at_')+1,instr(program,' ')-instr(program,'@')-1)||':'||value glogin_prompt from v$parameter,v$process where program like '%SMON%' and name='db_name'; set sqlprompt 'SQL_at_&_glogin_prompt> ' set termout on
