Hi, I want to build a database application based on mod_perl and Apache::DBI. The goal of Apache::DBI is to get persistent database connections using only one database user because of resource limits. The problem I see is that the password for connecting to the database is clear readable in the perl script. Does anybody know how to hide that password? I think, storing it in a file for reading by the script is not the right way (?).
Thanks for help! - Wolfgang
