Yes, reverse lookups are a good idea from a static address but AITCOM is
marketing reseller stuff to people who use dial-up connections and
dynamic IP addresses. DNS does not have inaddr-arpa entries for dynamic
addresses. It sounds to me if the passwords are sent in clear text, no
Mysql Database is safe across the internet. Is there a way to encrypt
these passwords? Even on the local network a sniffer could get a Mysql
connection password if sent from any host other than the server console.
What should a guy do about this?
