One possible solution exists is the book Oracle 7.0, Admin. and Manag., by M. Ault. The disk that comes with the book includes many scripts, including one that will temp change a users password, connect you as them and then set the password back to the original value. In general this book is a good value. I'm sure there are various ways of getting the source.
