All you need to do is configure a Database Access Descriptor in your WebDB listener that has specified an Oracle User Name and Oracle Password.
If you go to http://<your_machine>:<your_portno>/admin_/gateway.htm, you'll see a number of DAD's which do not have a username and password specified, implying that the user will be prompted for proper database credentials. If you create a DAD and supply the username/password and then use this DAD, your users will not be prompted for their username/password. The WebDB component will execute as the user you have specified in the DAD.
Hope this helps.
