Hi there,

I wrote a php script that accesses a database, and I am wondering about securing 
the password to the database.  I could prompt the user for the password every 
session, but I don't necessarily want the user to have the password.  Unless I'm 
missing something, any on-disk place I store the password needs to be readable by 
PHP, and therefore isn't very secure.  I have restricted the rights of the database 
user, but I'm wondering how others have dealt with this, or maybe I'm completely 
missing the point.
