Hi Wolfgang,
I saw no mention of the database version you are using, so I am assuming the latest (production) version:- 9.2

The information you seek is available from this Web page:

http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10501_01/java.920/a96654/basic.htm#1006238

(That URL may "wrap", since it's _very_ long :-)

The above link is points to the online version of "Oracle9i JDBC Developer's Guide and Reference, Release 2 (9.2)" Chapter 3: Basic Features
section entitled
"Specifying a Database URL That Includes User Name and Password"

Good Luck,
