# This file is used to hold the database username and password outside of the area that the webserver can access. It also sets the name of #
# the log file that can be enabled in the script. It should also be set to a write-able area outside of where the webserver can access.    #
# This makes it a bit harder for hacker to get access to the information when they should not.                                             #
