  Joe,
  We referred the auditing option. My understanding is that you   can track the oracle users using database auditing feature once the users are   logged into the database.
  But my requirement is to track the users who tried to login to   the database but could not login due to wrong password.   For example, somebody may know the connect string for an   oracle database and trying to login to the database as system user and with   various combination of password. We like to know who are these   users.
  Thanks, Ashoke
