I just keep a configuration file in a directory below Apache root
directory so it can't be accessed from the web. The file contains
things like system names, user id's and passwords. I just include this
file to access the info.
The file is different on different systems, but it resides in the same
location relative to $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].
