Net Assistant

Question

I am having trouble trying to keep the netasst window open after running a test connection. I am doing this on a client version of Red Hat 6.1 with Oracle 8i w/the patches applied and trying to connect to a linux server. After the test connection, I get the Xterm window back. I need to change the user/pwd to perform another test, but since the window ends I cannot. Is there a way to keep the window open, or change the user/pwd for the test?
