Which unfortunately is installation specific.  I.e., if I am distributing a program
and want to install a file which the user modifies to contain the passwords, I have to 
direct
the user to manually update the permissions of that file to suit his site.

How can I use a password hash to log on to a database server (or for any other login
for that matter)?
