We have an application which we are in the process of moving to Oracle. It uses a client written in C++ and for now Paradox tables. We have a userlist table which has info pertaining to each user. We use this table to verify usernames and passwords. What is the best way to manage this in Oracle client/server implementation? We still want to keep the userlist table simply because is offers info needed at the client level. Should we have a superuser in the backgroung doing everything at the Oracle level or should we manually create many users in the Oracle Database while at the same time keeping track of them in the userlist table?
