I assume that means connecting to the same host using "localhost" (with
Cocoon and DB running on the same server).
Most (hopefully all) network stacks will in such case send IP packets
"internally" without making them visible on the network.
IMHO encrypting the passwords in the config files wouldn't help much, unless
there is a way to guarantee that only your app is able to decrpyt them (using
a hardware key maybe?).
