The best you can do is put the passwords into a config file with locked-down 
permissions.  Make sure the passwords are randomly generated, and securely 
communicated with the server - SSL or whatever.

Although it doesn't provide real security, it does no harm to use some 
obfuscation - Encrypt with a key that's hard-coded into the application.
