Oracle 8/ ASP / User Authentication

Developing a web application using ASP and working with Oracle 8 as my database server. I have established connectivity to the database, however, now I am trying to authenticate users via username/password, as it is stored in the system database (whatever that is called). Is there a way to test for authentication?

The only other alternative I can think of is to also create a USERS table in the database, query the database via a generic login to see if the user exists, however, I would prefer just to use the Oracle database users. Is that possible?
