It has been mentioned here recently that the database login information for a production server should not be stored in the Coldfusion administrator. First off, for a dedicated server, why? Secondly, what is a good way to solve this? Thirdly, we have almost a dozen sites, most of which access one main SQL Server database then also some support databases. I wanted to have each site have its own login to the database but with multiple sites accessing multiple databases in a many-to-many relationship this would get very messy very fast. Anyone have a suggestion how I could do this? I may be able to merge all the databases together, they really ought to be anyway. Lastly, would this work: <cfquery name="myQuery" #application.db_string#>#sql#</cfquery> where application.db_string would store the relevant attributes & values necessary to log into this database?
