I'm not sure I understand what you mean. As I interprete your question,
the first login happens during some telnet/ssh connect on the machine,
and the second is the SQL+'s username and password prompt?
Using DBI things are different. DBD::Oracle can talk directly to a
database listener on a foreign machine, without the need to open a shell
on that machine or start SQL+, so providing the $DBI->connect(...) with
the correct data - the one you type into SQL+ - should be sufficient.
