In addition to oracle/oracle at the OS level. sys / change_on_install is
the default at the DB level. That one's usually changed but the other
(system / manager) is sometimes forgotten.

The Oracle 8 listener is always in the news. I'd suggest there. See Covert
Lab's posts from June 26.

But realistically, try oracle / oracle at the login prompt. You will be
surprised how often that works.

Never forget the OS the thing runs on, look at seeing if you can sniff the
network - dba tools are notorious for leaking credentials left right and
center.

See if you can find installation doco for any clients, or do some social
engineering to get a client installed on a pre-rigged workstation. That will
help you try a few different escalation attacks.
