Re: DBA_USERS

You can create a view based on DBA_USERS for your non DBAs. Remember you will have to grant select on DBA_USERS explicitly to the individual users for the view to work. It won't work if you grant it through a role.

Also, passwords are encrypted in the database, so none of them will be of any use to someone who is not a DBA.

Hope this helps.
