Of the 18 or so databases I'd like to connect to, three are down and should be unavailable. Of the rest, I am able to log on with no difficulties using sqlplus on those boxes.

What I'd like to have is one app that can connect to all of these boxes. One use I'd like to have is to change all my passwords at one time. Another use is an internal audit check of our various apps. Unfortently I don't have one box that has all the databases listed in one TNSNAMES.ORA file. I don't know why, some DBA decided at one time to make sure there was some sort of seperation.
