[Tutor] passwords in scripts

[Ben Vinger]

Hello

I've written a couple of scripts that check log files
on our WIndows and Unix servers.  These scripts have
plain text passwords in them, so anyone who can access
the filesystem of the Windows server that runs the
scripts can discover the passwords of the servers.
Is there a way to hide/encrypt these passwords?  Or
can the scripts be converted to compiled code in order
for the passwords to be hidden?


Thanks
Ben
