If you are utilizing a build tool such as phing or ant, there is a task
which will allow you to use tags in your configuration file which gets
replaced with the actual values. You want to do this anyway because it is
not a good idea to store username/password info in your source repo.

Your config would end up looking something like this:

resources.trailersDb.params.username = #USER_NAME#
resources.trailersDb.params.password =
#NOW_THE_PASSWORD_IS_REALLY_A_SECRET#
