Let us say you have an svc dump that a vendor needs
to debug a prolem. Given that svc dumps can contain
sensitive data, in particular likely passwords in a
dump generated by an ftp server, I was wondering how
other sites typically handle this.
Are you trying to hide the data, the code, or both?
If only the data, just do with you do with new code that you are
testing before putting it into production - Use TEST not LIVE Data.
Since the TEST data is Phoney (it: Formatted correctly but not
sensitive), you are not exposing anything in the dump.
If you are worried about passwords, set up a system on your Sandbox
Image and use special Passwords that are only valid there.
None of the above may be possible in your situation, but if/when it
is, this may be your solution.
