ptkdb covers the SSH side of things well.
As for any database passwords, I'd be inclined to simply store passwords in a file that is readable only by the user running the script. If that requires a new user and/or group just for running automated commands, so be it.
Cheers, If the information in this post is inaccurate, or just plain wrong, don't just downvote - please post explaining what's wrong.
