Database Security

[djg_uk]

Hi,

I'm connecting to MS SQL 2000 on MS Windows 2000 server and want to hide the Database details within the PHP. I read somewhere that it is possible to do this using the require() command and grabbing an include file from another directory with restricted access.

The problem is, I know how it is done on Apache, but since there is no CHMOD command on Windows 2K, is it possible?

Kind Regards,

David Grant

If you right click on a directory or file in the Windoze Explorer and select Properties from the menu, then switch to the Security tab, you should be able to specify what user(s) have permission to read the directory/file.
