Subject:Fwd: ODBC MySQL Password as plain text
View as plain text  
Following my previous email.  I've now configured my database connection
using a ODBC DNSLESS SSL connection. However the problem still remains, the
password is stored in the ASP file in plain text.  Does anyone have any
recommendations on how to overcome this issue ?

Cheers
Neil

Hi

The MySQL ODBC connection password is stored as plain text in the Windows
registry.  What is the best way to overcome this issue - to ensure the
password is saved securely

Thanks,
Neil
