Hi all,
I've been using php in a local Unix environement where I never had to worry about read
permissions of users/groups on my db connection's config file which contains the user and
password. I'm trying to think of a possible solution for my connection properties in a
shared/hosting environement where users/groups *might* have read access to my files.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Ed.
