Easy Connect using SQL Plus

With Password

sqlplus user/password@host:port/db_service_name

The port number does not need to be specified if it is 1521

Without Password

If using the bash shell you may get an error if you do not wish to type the password on the command prompt.
In this case you need to quote your connect string and escape the quotes with backslashes.

sqlplus user@\"host:port/db_service_name\"
