What's the problem with having your password files in the same dir ? I have
up to 4 databases sharing the same ORACLE_HOME, thus having their password
files in the same dbs directory.
They have different names anyway : orapw$ORACLE_SID.
The password file must reside in $ORACLE_HOME/dbs : if you want to change
this, you must have <> ORACLE_HOMEs for your DBs, and that's not what you
want !
