Hi people...
Just wondering what way's people use to protect their passwords for 
fully automated installs.

So far I'm thinking this:
Access to share for unattended limited to me and "unattended-user".
Passwords all in config.pl and obfuscated with a simple routine.
Script deletion of c:\netinst after installation is complete (custom one 
because I dont like the todo.pl script).

Now, this is obviously limited in that any clever user can get the 
password for the unattended user using tftp, and then get the admin 
passwords by running the routines that unhide them. Does anyone have any 
more tips or ideas?
