Custom mix Authentication

Question

Hi ,
I have two kind of Users, one type users are Oracle Users(their authentication could be checked through -DBACCOUNT-) and another type users are detailed in a database table(,say auth).
Now, what I want is that if User logs in then following operation gets happen
If username/password is correct according to Oracle Users(i.e -DBACCOUNT-) then returns to the main page(,say 1,as successful login)
elsif <check the table auth tabel,containing the list of Users with respective passwords> if user exists in the table then returns to main page 1(as successful login)
else return to the login page(,say 101,as unsuccessful login).
To build this piece ,what should I do?
I have created an on demand function in Apex,authCheck, which checks if the username and password exits in the auth table or not and returns the respective boolean.
create or replace function authCheck(p_username in varchar2, p_password in varchar2) return boolean is
Result boolean:=FALSE;
ln_verify number(15);
begin
select count(*) into ln_verify from auth
where upper(user_id)=upper(p_username)
and upper(password)=upper(p_password);
if sql%notfound then
Result := FALSE;
else
Result := TRUE;
end if;
return(Result);
Exception
when NO_DATA_FOUND then
return FALSE;
end authCheck;
