in reply to Protecting passwords in source

The problem is that anyone can read the password. So find a solution that doesn't involve passwords.

if the problem is accessing a remote site or copying a file, use ssh/scp and the 'known-hosts' file, or use 'hosts.allow' and 'hosts.deny' on the remote site. There may be similar solutions to accessing databases.
