Subject: Hardcoded Database IP in ASP
Hello fellow Security Guru's.
I've been on the distro from sometime and gaining a lot of insight into
various security issues.
Question: I have ASP script that points to a backend database residing
on
seperate physical server. Is there any known way of getting around using
a
hard-coded IP address to point to the database? Would utilizing the OS
hosts
file serve my purposes of and satisfy secure code practices? Thanks
guys.
Darryl
