Dear All,

  May be this question is a generic one. As we deploy applications to clients, there are several occasions where the client out of curiosity tamper the Config files and Database settings . Is there any way that we encrypt all the config info along with IDB Config ? So that the end user can't modify settings.
 
 Any ideas will be much appreciated. This is really annoying when a customer tampers the settings.
 
Thanks
Raja

Here are two solutions:
 
(1) Use a DataSouceKeyResolver and eliminate the use of an ibconfig file.
 
(2) Embed the ibconfig file in the AppHelper.dll.
