You said, "Already had that discussion, about not storing CC nums etc and encryption but they still want to store the cc info anyway. I was asked if it was possible to setup some sort of secure connection the DB. I haven't used Access outside of simple proto-typing in a long time."
In the CF administrator when you add a datasource you can enter the databases password but if someone had access to the registry they could get that password in no time. Also, I didn't say don't store cc's. I said if you have to store them at I would at least encrypt them. Especially when it's easy. It only takes a few minutes to implement encryption/decryption and can save you a heck of a lot more time, money and hassle later (oh and lawsuits).. That code I sent you in my last message works great and it would not take more than a few minutes to implement. Maybe run that by them. Anyhow, good luck. - Joseph -----Original Message----- From: Duane Boudreau [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, December 21, 2001 10:46 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Password Protecting an Access ODBC connection A colleague asked if it is possible to password protect an ODBC connection to an access database, but its been so long since I've used MS Access that cant remember. Is this possible? ______________________________________________________________________ Dedicated Windows 2000 Server PIII 800 / 256 MB RAM / 40 GB HD / 20 GB MO/XFER Instant Activation · $99/Month · Free Setup http://www.pennyhost.com/redirect.cfm?adcode=coldfusiona FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/cf-talk@houseoffusion.com/ Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists
