Hi Everyone,

This is the setup: A front-end Sun Solaris 8 server running Apache and
mod php. A second server running Solaris 8 and Sybase.

Clients with a web browser connects to the front-end server and submit a
query. Apache/php then opens a remote connection to Sybase on the second
server using the function  sybase_connect("server". "dbuser",
"password") and processes the query. Everything works well. However, the
problem is that the dbuser password is sent cleartext across the wire.

Is there a way to setup a secure connection between the 2 servers, or at
least have the dbuser's password encrypted?

Thanks.

Dennis
