	What security measures do you take from giving people access to the SQL_server_connection.asp page? Can you delete that file after you setup the database? Since the password to the SQL server is in clear text it seems that a poorly configured server would give someone access to that server information in the file if they could download it. What permissions should be given to the admin folder, etc.?? Thanks

	The only way to download an ASP file is via FTP, so unless your FTP account is not safe the file will not be safe. There is no other way to do this and is as safe as it can be.
