Hello,
I am wondering what methods you all have come up with for storing your
database password. In the past, I have just been putting all of the DB
connection information in an included file. Although the idea of the DB
password sitting on the server in plain text makes me feel uneasy.
Any suggestions on how to secure the database password would be greatly
appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
