Default 4JS question - FGLPROFILE permissions

Hi,
We are using 4JS application software on HP-UX 11i . I am just
wondering what the correct permissions on FGLPROFILE should be in
order to hide any passwords stored in there and any ideas for my
problem ?

-r--r--r-- appowner appgroup fglprofile.dbtype

We have a version of the application working against both Informix and
Oracle databases. With Informix its not so much a problem but with
Oracle we have the userid and password stored in the above file in a
hardcoded cleartext format.
Entries in there are as follows:
dbi.database.appname.username= "Schemaname"
dbi.database.appname.password="password"

This is not good as its readable by shell users.

Anyone with the above experience and able to encrypt/decrypt passwords
in a non-text format ?

Thanks in advance
Prashant
