FACT(s) (Environment):

Oracle DataServer

SYMPTOM(s):

Userid and password shows under Utilities->Information in the Data Administration Tool

Connecting to Oracle using userid/password@oracle_sid

CAUSE:

If you connect to Oracle using -U userid/password@oracle_sid it is interpreted as just the user id when the Information about the database is displayed under the Utilities->information section in the Data Administration tool or the Character Data Dictionary.

FIX:

In order not to have the password show you need to separate it from the -U parameter. Change your parameters to:
-U userid/oracle_sid -P password
Then when you display the information for the database, it will only show the userid/oracle_sid.

If you don't want the oracle_sid to show you can use:
-U userid -P password/oracle_sid.
