Add the account NT AUTHORITY\ANONYMOUS LOGON into SQL server and give
it access to the databases/tables that you need to access from the
Sharepoint machine. Then in the connection string use
server=myserver;integrated security=sspi;database=sharepointdb;
then Sharepoint will talk to SQL without putting usernames/pw's in the
connection string.
