"best" way will depend on your individual requirements. Here are a couple of
ways in what I think is least to most secure.
1. keep connection string in an include file or set into application
variable in global.asa
2. keep it in a text file that is not accessible through web, read it into
an app var in global.asa.
3. keep it in system registry, read in as needed or put in app var in
global.asa
4. embed it in an activex server-side component and call a method of that
component to open connections.
There are probably other variations as well.
