Hi,
    I have created one .net web application which will have all the DB
connection info in the config file. The system which has this application is
in DMZ. I don't want to place my DB connection info in the DMZ system. what
should i do?

how could i achieve this? will Windows share point web part help me in
hiding my DB connection string from external world?

Thanks in advance.

you can encrypt them - .Net 2.0 has built in support for that - in 1.1 you
can use my DPAPI wrapper:
