Hello, Some functions need you to provide username and password, for instance odbc_connect. Even though the username/password just has minimum access privileges to the resource, putting it there in clear text in a script gives me heartburn. How do people handle username/password in such kind of cases? I'm sure there must be some way to store critical information in some encrypted format but it's still readable to scripts for authentication purpose. But don't know how. Any ideas or pointer would be greatly appreciated. Bing -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
