    Why not use Enterprise Manager and store the SYS password as a preferred credential. That way you only need to remember the password to Enterprise Manager and the rest is sorted for you.

    Alternatively, use a standard pattern in the password but prefix/suffix it with the SID/Database Name. That way all the passwords are different, but easy to remember.

    Obviously, if someone founds out your pattern they have access to all your machines :(

    Alternatively, set them all to "password" no-one will ever thing of that!

    Cheers

    Yes, or the same as username.
